    And where do you have your ebooks installed on your device. They normally should be in main memory. Also, there are a number of different ebook formats. Ben

    Actually, I have eReader and about a dozen books existing quite happily on my SD card.

    Hello Kreth How did you get eReader to find the books on your card? The only way I can seem to get it to see the books is to transfer them from card to memory. Thanks Melmak

    I use both the palm ereader from the installation CD and mobipocket reader; I have both readers and about 10 ebooks (both .pdb and .mbp) on the card and I have no troubles. What I did was double click on the card file on my computer and it puts it into the Palm Quick Install and I chose the card for the destination. Then after you hotsync, you open up your book reader of choice and it should find all of the matching books.
