Hi. Just got new PRS-T1 and uploaded all my ebook collection.
It consist an hundreds of books.

PRS-T1 shows them in plain list. Is there some way to get some auto-collection, say by authors as it's toooo boring to create collections for such amount of books. Even on PC.

Calibre will help you, though you will need to do a bit of work too.

Oh, thanks for Calibre. Never seen this before!

I'm very hope this will solve my needs.

prs-t1 and alphanumeric tabs

I have both PRS-600 and PRS-T1. 600 automatically creates alphanumeric groups/tabs for quick access to contents. Does T1 have this feature.

Do you mean the letters and groups that appear along the side so you can fast jump through the list? Unfortunately the T1 does not have that. I miss it too. Tap the page number at the bottom of the screen and there is a bar that you can drag. It's not as efficient as the old bar.

Thank you for an answer. I was afraid this may be the case.
Do you know if there is an alternative book manager software which can be installed onto PRS-T1.

When looking at the list of books on the T1, there are four icons in the upper right corner. The second one from the right will allow you to sort by date added, title, author, file name, or latest read.

Hope that helps.

You could post in the sub-forum where they discuss rooting and alternative homescreens and other creative things that people are doing with the Sony readers. See "Sony Reader Dev Corner" at the top of the list of threads. You might be interested in this homescreen design from mrspaceman.
