Shelf Life

Mobipocket still won’t directly add books to my memory card but a work-around is to drag and drop the e-book files from the My Documents/My eBooks folder onto the phone’s memory card. Mass storage cababilities have to be enabled in the phone’s settings for this to work. Hopefully this will work with ebooks from the public library also. It’s a little annoying that Mobipocket won’t find the card directly but the drag-and-drop is not terribly time consuming.

I bought the Collins English Dictionary from the Mobipocket bookstore and installed it on the phone. It is massive, with 500,000 entries. Mobipocket automatically recognized the dictionary and now I can use the word look-up option while reading other books and it will find the word in Collins and display the definition. Pretty slick.
