I have not been following this thread much, but a delay in moving from file to file and in loading file lists normally happens when you have above 50 or 60 files. I have a file list of about 115 mp3s and it takes about 5 or so seconds to load. There is a delay of 2 or 3 seconds when moving from file to file, except when I have them playing continuously. 


Have a great day,
Alex

Hi Richard and list:
Yep, my experience with the 2 Gig card is very similar to yours 
with the 4
Gig. I can live with it also now that I know it is normal 
behaviour. It was
just a bit disconcerting the first time or two that it happened. 
If I
remember correctly, it the first time it happened was when 
exiting Braille
mode after writing a note. I had to wait maybe 30 seconds or so 
to exit.


Cheers,
Dave

I'm using a four gig card. Sometimes, especially when either 
moving
through folders or files, there is a bit of sluggishness. It 
isn't
always happening, and I can live with it. I bet it is just the 
price

you pay for running high capacity cards.

Hi Sandy and list:
Your suggestion is reasonable. But yes, I reformatted the 2 Gig 
card

before
I put anything on it.



Cheers,
Dave

My 2gig cards are sluggish, but that is because I didn't 
reformat

after
the latest update. David, did you reformat? Just curious. The 
2gig

cards are supposed to behave themselves now.

Sometimes the book port is sluggish to respond to commands on

card.

I've only experienced this degree of sluggishness with the larger

card. I

know I don't have too many files in the root folder of the card

because

there is only one file there--the book port manual. I can only

conclude
that the slow response has something to do with the size of the 
card.

It
isn't a consistent thing. It happens rarely so it isn't a problem 
for

me.

Nevertheless, it does happen.

I'm thinking of buying a bookport.
How well does the book port work with larger storage capacity 
flash

cards?
I'd be most interested to know what kind of storage folks are

currently

using with book port.
