"Elegant" way of browsing through book collection
Not sure I'm posting in the right section but here it goes:

I'm starting to have a pretty decent ebook collection and the way they show has a list in Calibre just isn't cutting it for me...

Isn't there a program or some sort of way to display the ebooks like, for example, the music albums in iTunes using cover flow?
Something like this:





Since having a bookshelf where one can browse trough the books is one of the advantages/disadvantages (depends on the point of view) of having hardbacks this would be a interesting addition to Caliber for example...

Make up for it by going over to Dr. Goyal Calibre site and pressing the little yellow button as a 'thank you' for him anticipating what you want and designing it in before you even knew you needed Calibre. Isn't this a tremendous program?
