I think it would be ideal if the user could specify whether they wanted the
files alphabetized or not. Sometimes, I really want my files alphabetized.
But there are other times when I'd like to choose the order they play in
myself. Right now, if you transfer one file at a time, the new file is
automatically the last one in the folder. This is nice when you want MP3s
to play in a specific order, for example.

I would accept this being done on the PC prior to transfer.

This would actually be much more efficiently controlled on the PC if that were acceptable.

That is something we are looking at.
ewers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Thursday, June 30, 2005 3:40:31 PM >>>Larry have you given any thought to alphabetizing files in the list of files presented on the book port? In my opinion, that would make it a lot easier to find files. For example, if you were looking for a file whose name began with "J," and you were already in the L's, you would know you had gone to far. As it is, you really don't know the order of the files and sometimes have to arrow through the entire list to find the one you are looking for. Thanks. Neal
