Thank you for that tip, I'd never thought of that and it definitely could come in handy!

I don't foresee any problems using Calibre, and hopefully I won't have any. I've never had 2 different types of devices to worry about, that's my concern as both Mom and I have Kobos and I've never had a problem with that.

Also, I just added the 'series sorting metadata plugboards' to Calibre for the T1, hope I did it right and didn't jump the gun as I don't even have it yet!
I had copied and pasted it from a thread where somebody recently outlined how to do it. I added this:

Format: device_db
Device: PRST1
Source template: {author_sort}{series:| - | }{series_index:0>2s}
Destination: authors
Press 'Save plugboard' button
back to 'add new plugboard' for 2nd
Format: epub
Device: PRST1
Source template: {author_sort}{series:| - | }{series_index:0>2s}
Destination: authors
Press 'Save plugboard' button

^^^
I hope that's correct and will sort my series properly?

Anything else I will have to add or change?
