There is room for an expandion mmc card so no bigee. Not bad for the money compared to other PDAs. The opnly problem is mine won't turn on anymore. And is too old for them to replace. Reset and what ever else they suggested never helped either. I just wish they made this unit a little more solid. ivnj very good but not perfect What I like about it (I own ebm-901): 1. Open platform (thus lots of useful FREE software available). 2. Generic AAA batteries support. 3. Simple USB interface. 4. Large screen. 5. Good handwriting recognition. 6. Sturdy and reliable case. 7. Low power consumption. 8. Good music playback quality. Now, about its well-known problems: folks, BACKUP your data on your MMC! This way you will NEVER lose your OS and apps! Come on! The device does have a power backup in the form of a capacitor, which is really bad and it hardly does anything. For a techie, it is not hard to put in a differect capacitor. Problem solved. Sometimes it helps keep memory intact if you pull out one dead battery and put it a fresh one, then pull out another one and replace it with fresh. You cannot manage your files on MMC from within the EBM's OS. Who knows if Ectaco will ever release a new version of the OS. Otherwise I love my eBookMan, I use it all the time, it's my primary mobile library, and I am quite hesitant to look elsewere for a new PDA. One word...BAD This was a total waste of money, as it had data loss time and again, and that was when the thing would work! Do yourself a favor a stay away from this product, or else you will be throwing money away just like me.
