I've tried to use Calibre to send the actual CBZ/CBR files directly to my ereader (currently a rooted Nook Color) so that I can use an android comic reader application, but it doesn't allow it. (There are several good comic readers that DO support zooming in on pages.) I haven't dug into the plugin aspect of things yet so I don't know if there is any way to get Calibre to do it indirectly.

However, I would think it would be a simple matter for Mr. Goyal to include the ability to send CBZ/CBR files to a device (and have them show up as "on device" in the Calibre screen), so I'd like to request that he consider it. This would open up the use of Calibre to many new users to help manage their comic collections.

Thanks.
The feature is there... Just might not be enabled
