If someone told me what the Sony or any other device needs, I guess it wouldn't be a big deal to adapt Catalog to serve those gadgets as well.

Hmm... I don't know if I understand this question correctly From what you wrote it seems as if you expect Catalog to swallow an ebook file and figure out author and title etc. autmagically. This, however, is not the way it works, tough. As soon as you hit the 'New' button you'll have to enter everything you want to see for the book.

On the other hand, I do have a hack the does something like that. It's also a java program (a true command-line tool). As input parameter you have to specify a file into which the output of an 'ls'. If you want to use this program, you'll probably have to adapt it to your needs as it relies heavily on some naming convention.
If you want to have a look, you'll find it attched.

Best regards,
