Hi Graham,

We considered a hard drive version of BookCourier, but it's not feasible 
because of power consumption restrictions. You can't run a hard drive using 
AA batteries. However, we are currently working on support for 4GB flash 
cards. After that, we'll turn our attention to 8GB cards. Of course another 
option is to use multiple cards.
