Anyone using a Sony PRS-950 with Calibre?

Hello.

I have been using an Android tablet for my ebook reading while waiting for the new Sony readers to come out...

They are now all out and I'm ready to buy a PRS-950...

I've gotten quite used to leaving my ebooks on my internal Calibre server and simply browsing via the HTML interface to select what I want to read next.

I have read most of the posts here and I understand that the 950 works well with wifi and simple web browsing.

Here is my question:

On the 950, can you browse to your own internal Calibre server, view the metadata, etc.. then download the epub to your reader?
The specific interface I use with Calibre is either the \browse or the \stanza one.

Thanks in advance for anyone willing to test this for me.

Unfortunately Wi-Fi browser on the 950 doesn't do downloads.
