  4. Re:The one that isn't Sony by tomzyk · · Score: 1 · on Which eBook Reader is the Best?

    Oh, and for some reason, the idea of being able to just plug in a thumb drive to the side of these things has escaped both of these companies. I can understand Sony's argument, since they make a whole line of flash media, but SD cards and the like are for cameras, not for storing books.
    I disagree. I have an SD card in my cellphone (Treo650) that is used to primarily hold all of my eBooks. Yes, the extra space is also used for more photos and applications that won't fit into the base memory of it, but the point I'm trying to make is just that SD cards are not just a type of media storage strictly used in digi-cams. I think of them more like a very simplistic (and much smaller) version of thumb-drives.

    I am assuming that a USB port has NOT been included on these devices because of the constraints caused by a handheld device... particularly the limited power supply issue. If you put a USB port on a handheld machine, it needs to be able to power the device that you would plug into it,/i>. (ie. all of those little USB trinkets that were all-the-rave a couple years ago.)

    USB Geek sells an adapter for $7 + $3 for shipping.
    I wouldn't exactly call that expensive.
