If the page number showing after the item CONTINUE READING is the same as the page number showing after the item END, then I know I've already read the book. This works well if I'm away from my computer and cannot MOVE my finished book to a collecton entitled READ.

I do this as well (checking the continue reading page)

:-O

What kind of books do you read? I consider myself an avid reader, but all books I have read in the last year total less than 38 MB combined (in LRF, the size includes cover image for each book). Likely I won't live long enough to go through a 2GB card once!

Yea man, I thought the same thing. He must be reading manga or something that has real big image files.

Yes, I do read Manga.

Usually I have a 2Gb card full of books, and a 4 Gb card full of manga with me when I travel.

What do I read ? Last trip I decided to read all Asimov, all I could find from Heinlein, the whole of M.Y.T.H. Inc, ...Had two weeks on my own in Philadelphia (King of Prussia, in fact. Absolutly nothing to do in the evening except the mall, and that grows tale quite fast...)

Also I have a bunch of technical pdfs I read to complete my training.

When I'm not on holliday I read an average of one SF-Fantasy book/2 days.

On hollidays it is more like 1/day, two sometimes.

In addition I do read mangas during the small opportunities that present themselves - cigarette break, Lift time, and I won' dwelve on toilet time 8)

I didn't remember about the "erase book" option. I'm gonna use it !
