If you find it, please, post the answer. I do that with my Palm E2 changing the SD-Card from a device to other, but, with ePhone and ePub format I don't know. Perhaps with DiskAid.

I use the ipod touch for short periods of reading, but my old eyes cannot sustain reading an entire book (my vision actually goes blurry even after I turn off the ipod). I had to give up the Kindle because of eye strain as well. The PRS 505 works best for me.

Not an ideal solution obviously, but in the end, I went for the simpler approach of reading a different book on my phone, especially since the page here and there style doesn't always seem to fit all books I just had to pick the ones I put on there a bit more carefully.

The only device I know that can do this is the Kindle, but only with books bought from Amazon.

It would be nice if calibre supported reading the metadata from different readers, as far as bookmarks, current position, etc. Could use that to sync between readers. That's the biggest thing I hate about switching between my N800 and my 505. Takes forever to find the right part of where I am currently reading.

Just started reading ebooks about two months ago. Started on the ipod touch. Loved it but wished it were a bit bigger, so just got the sony 505. I must say that though I like the sony, I love the backlight on the touch, the ability to read in dim places and in the dark and the love the fastness of the page turning. The formatting has seemed very good on the Touch also, whether that is the books themselves, or the apps I don't know. Like them both, but I will run and buy a bigger Ipod touch if they ever come out with one.

This is only my second post, so hope i have done this right.

As a long tome iPhone user, I can't fathom why someone would want to read an entire book on that miserable little washed-out screen.

To each their own...
