I'm still pretty foggy on all of the features of Calibre, but I use it to:
- sort out funky metadata if I get a book from a questionable source (ie TPB)
- make multiple copies of a book in a few different formats
- strip DRM

I have well over 1,000 ebooks, though, so I'm going to have to start working out how to use it to mark which books I've read and which books I haven't... It's just too time consuming to do that on the Kindle itself!

Edit: Hmm, well, after posting this, I went and did just that! I've started to use 'read' and 'to be read' tags on Calibre. There must be an easier way to too this... *shrewd stare*
