Until this week, I used the internal memory for all my books - using Calibre to transfer the titles. I've now got ~240 titles in the e-library and was beginning to get a little low on internal memory, so I've started to use both the cards available, partly to free up internal memory, partly just to see how it goes.
I've organised things so that one entire collection goes on a 64Mb card, and all of the Sony freebies that came with the reader go on t'other card (4Gb).
Biggest gripe/problem is that the reader treats (for example) collection 'Fiction' in internal memory as separate and distinct from collection 'Fiction' on an SD card, so when you browse Collections, there are two 'Fiction' listings - the discovery of this nearly generated a posting on the Vent & Rant thread!
No data yet as to how battery life will be affected by the use of SD cards. Use of SD cards *seems* to be an attractive option because I want to have the full library with me - I have lots of time to read, but cannot keep the PC with me.
