Question Looking for a new Ereader
Hi,

I need a little help finding a new reader.
I had a Sony PRST-1 and an Icarus Pocket (on loan)

The thing I hated from the Sony was there was no way to keep my book in a file system structure.
The thing I loved from the Icarus I put the books on a sd-card, put it in the Icarus and could browse the folders for the writer and book I want.

I have a lot of books in directories on my pc
The main two categories are Dutch and English books.
In those directories are the names of the writers (A-Z) and in each letter the names of the writers.

My wish-list is:
sd-card
File system structure that keeps intact
e-ink
6" reader
reads e-pub
long battery life

Witch new e-readers have those options?

From Kobo:
Note: Kobo Mini, Kobo Touch 2.0, and Kobo Glo HD do not have a Micro SD card slot.

You will have to really check if any do.

Android readers do. I went to Android for that simple reason. Since you said Dutch, it seems there are more android readers available in the EU.

Other option is a tablet. Kobo does make those and they probably have the card slot.
Any tablet should install your preferred reading app.

None of the Kobos you mention are still in production. Neiter the e-ink devices or the Kobo tablets. The tablets didn't have sd-card slots anyway.

Have a look at the new Pocketbook Touch HD. It has everything you want and even more like buttons and text-to-speech, audio and chess and much more.

ETA If you scroll to the bottom of the site you can change the country selection to your country.

If your country is the Netherlands or Belgium, as the fact that you have Dutch ebooks suggests, then you cannot buy the Pocketbook Touch HD in your own country (yet). But you should be able to find a shop e.g. in Germany that is willing to send it to you.
