I thought Sony's PRS-500 supported 'collections' on it? Waitaminit... yep, got mine set up with collections for paranormal mysteries and one for sf.

Of course, that doesn't make a bit of difference because it CAN'T USE COLLECTIONS ON THE FREAKIN' SD CARD!!!!

IOW, 'folders' work just great ON THE PRS-500, but not on the SD card! D'Oh! And, of course, the device can handle about 80 ebooks max. Wow!

Yeah, not one of the better decisions by Sony for their 500 model. Don't know if the 505 will support folders and collections on the SD card.

And, unfortunately, I don't know if the Cybook will. I presume so, but my current one doesn't - yet. This could be in there in next week's firmware update - or not.
