Hmm. I was thinking of getting a smaller, faster card, since I haven't even used up the space in the Reader yet (my wife is making a trip to Boston, and I am ordering some stuff for her to bring back). From what you are saying, Harry, it sounds like the Library Scan is CPU bound, and that is going to cause problems. I might try and old 16MB card I have from an old digital camera to see how that works (if I can find it)

It might be worth it to wait and see if I ever fill up the Reader, by which time card prices will be cheaper. I have less than half the memory full (I don't use the reader for music), and more books than I could reasonably read in a couple of months, with the amount of free time that I have. Of course, some are reference books, which are good to have around. And several journal articles. Slightly over 90 documents (I have about 150 in my calibre library). I guess I don't really need one. Maybe I will pick up a cheap 2-4 GB card (they don't cost much) and we can use it in the camera if we need to.

Of course, my laptop has a card reader, so maybe a better card would not be wasted.
