I disagree. The current file system works fine for a couple of hundred books (I have about 160 at the moment on my Reader). It would be unworkable for a couple of thousand, but for a couple of hundred it works OK. If you have, say, 200 books, you'll have to go through, on average, 10 index pages to get to where you want to be. That only takes a few seconds. I can live with that .

I have about 230. That's about the limit for me. I, too, can easily live with that amount, because at any given time I'm only reading about 5 books. When I finish one, I cue up another and see if I want to read that one. I have a 2gig sans disk card.

I also have about 100 other files (books) I downloaded from this site, but they're on the computer.
