Hi,

Probably in a week or two I'll place an order for a Kindle 3, but in the meantime I'm starting to get my books organized in Calibre 0.7.12 which I just installed for the first time (running Ubuntu 10.04). Just curious, will Calibre sync to a Kindle 3? My guess is yes, but if so will the meta info plus covers sync as well? I haven't used a Kindle yet, so I wasn't sure how or where the covers are displayed.

I'm also setting up the Series and Tag info so the books will hopefully be more easily sorted/searched since I have about 500 books that'll come across in the initial sync... all being either TXT or PDF.

Thanks --

Sam
