set default ebook viewer window size?

Is there any way to configure the ebook viewer so that it always comes up initially with a specific window size?

I'm running on an EEE with a 1024x600 display and the standard size is just a little too large vertically. I'd like to have it come up a little smaller.

Obviously, I can resize it but I end up doing it every time.

I'm running 0.5.10, by the way.

As new user to Calibre I was investigating this subject (but because I wanted it larger, hihi) ... for those looking into it in future:

for me worked just to run E-book viewer from start menu (ie. just run it empty), check "Remember window size" in preferences (along with other settings I wanted as defaults), and then close it. It worked same way as if "setting defaults" function. Hinted to do this by sherman in this thread

(feel free to delete this if I missed it elsewhere or ... )

and oh, by the way, nice work kovidgoyal !!

Of course if you have a question, tip, statement or experience you'd like to share feel free to start a new thread (see attached).
