What kind of books did you buy from Fictionwise? Which format?

I use calibre and yes it would be great if there was some way to sync to the device via the program...if it's there and I'm missing it please feel free to let me know.

Any of the multiformat titles will work with Calibre, just download the LRF version.

I used to use Mobipocket Reader to send my ebooks on the SD card of my Cybook, but I had some freezing issue and decided to put all my ebooks directly on my Cybook's memory.
Then I was "obliged" to create folders to sort by genre my books.
So now I use my file explorer.

Ah I thought something had changed. It's been a while since I shopped there and back then the multiformat selection was pretty bad. Have things improved?

I have a kindle 1, and used to use Whispernet, then I got paranoid about what system changes Amazon might be sending via Whispernet, so now I just use USB. If I am too lazy to get up a find my USB, I just insert the SD card into my computer, and copy it, and then use content manager to move it between SD (books I don't want everyone to see) and kindle (everything else).
