Hi,
Thanks for Calibre it is great and definitely the best e-book application I have seen.

I have just bought a PRS-600 (UK version) and I want to download books to it. I am using Calibre 0.6.17 on Ubuntu. When I plug in the PRS-600 I get three browser windows open (2 for the files systems on the reader and one for the SD card). However, Calibre does not recognise the reader (it does not appear at the top next to the Library icon).

a) Is this a bug in this version of Calibre?
b) How do I force Calibre to recognise my reader?
c) Is it safe to just copy the files onto the reader manually?
c.1) If so does it have to go in a specific directory?

P.S. I have set the Sony Touch as the reader I am using in the setup.

Thanks
