I heard back from Aluratek. They wrote: "If you purchased your LIBRE ebook reader PRO from K-Mart, an SD card is not included with the LIBRE. The 100 free ebooks are saved to the LIBRE's internal memory, not on an SD card. The box does not state that an SD card is included. The quick start guide or instructions may refer to an SD card but that is an error. K-Mart's current LIBRE promotion does not include an SD card. Other retailers may include the SD card but their price may be higher that what K-Mart is charging."

I figured this was the case. I've been reading on the Libre and am impressed by the range of formats it displays, especially my own RTF documents and even PDFs. I can also easily read ebooks borrowed from the public library. These were my main interests anyway. If nothing changes with how the reader works, I think I'll keep it and get a cheap SD card.
