Hmm... how well does that work for you? I've loaded up 1000+ books on my 16 gig card through calibre, but if you add to it after that, even if it's just one book, the thing takes hours to rescan. In truth I wish I didn't bother with getting the card, and it's since been relegated to mp3 storage.
To me it's a bit of advertising hype for Sony to state 16 gig as a limit. It falsely leads you to believe you can actually use all of it for book storage, and then you go out and needlessly blow money on a big card. If you absolutely had to have that many books ported with you, it would be best to spread them out over a series of 1-2 gig cards.
