When I first got my Jetbook, I would pop the SD card out of the reader and into my computer to update my books. I did this because I thought the transfer process would be faster than using the USB cable.
I had problems when I popped the SD card back into the Jetbook. Many times the Jetbook would hang and I would reset. I only have books on SD card - none in internal storage.
So I switched to using a USB cable. I do not use the cable supplied with the Jetbook, just one of the USB cables already in my desk drawer. The Jetbook appears as two drives: the internal storage and the SD Card.
Just drag files to the SD card. Like any external device, you have to click the icon in the system tray before disconnecting the USB cable. Sometimes you may have to wait a minute for it to finish writing and then try the disconnect again.
Even though the USB connection is slower, the Jetbook always recognizes all the books on the SD card, so I find the process works better overall using the USB cable.
On a separate issue... I have noticed a problem with pdf files. In this situation 1. open a pdf file on the Jetbook, 2. close it, 3. update the pdf on the computer and 4. copy the updated pdf to the Jetbook. The Jetbook will be unable to open the pdf (without a reset). This does not happen with txt files.
