Question mobipocket is great!

My name is Darren and I have been using mobipocket Reader for years. I have an advanced form of muscular dystrophy and use adaptive technology to control my smartphone through an EMG switch. I rely heavily on my Palm Treo 750 and use mobipocket for all my mobile reading.

I am hoping to find some help here on managing my ebook/edoc library. I would like to have a large collection of electronic documents stored and available from my 2 gigabyte mini SD card. However, the larger my library becomes the more unwieldy it is to retrieve books. Is there a way to have separate libraries that can be made active or inactive. Even with the reading list, mobipocket Reader's performance is becoming sluggish, and I suspicion it is because it is having to index so many documents.

Your advice would be most appreciated...

One solution is to get multiple SD cards and have smaller libraries on each card.

Hi Darren and welcome to MR. Check out calibre - maybe it's an option for you to organise your library.
