What exactly is an E-bay skeptic? You're not sure E-bay exists?

 Correct me if I'm wrong but the stuff on your bookport should still be on
 the hard drive.
 I found a 4 gig card on ebay for $75. Is that a bad deal?

Since you're new to the list, I'll repeat some advice I've given here before. Understand that this is purely one user's opinion and that your mileage may vary. I personally wouldn't buy a card larger than 1 gig (2 at the very most) because of the cost unless there's a _very_ special reason for doing so, such as having tons of MP3 music files or reading almost exclusively books from Audible. The reason is that CF cards _can_ go bad and the less money you've got tied up in one card, the less you may lose. A 1 gig card can hold a huge amount of material in text format (I think mine currently has over 80 titles on it, and that includes several MP3 and Audible titles). The fact that cards can and do go bad is also the reason to stick with brands that offer a lifetime warranty.

Thank you very much! I'll definitely be buying the flash card with the spare money from my next pay check. The card that comes with book port is adequate for the moment, but I'm thinking that if I go ahead and get the biggest card possible, II won't have to send files to the book port nearly as often.
