I have two options and don't know which ones best, a) leave my kindle on charge over night as I will load the books in the evening, or b) let the battery run down and just accept the charge won't last very long.
Like other users I like to have my entire Calibre library on tap, whenever I want, my existing Sony Touch has 701 books on it now

whitearrow gave me this suggestion earlier:
"One way you can tell how the indexing is doing is to do a search -- choose a "rare" word so it doesn't generate 500 hits, and when it gives you the list it will give you the number of how many titles haven't been indexed yet at the bottom. You can click to see which they are, and if they seem to be stuck you can delete and reload one at a time."
If I were to load my books again, I would just send them all and leave the Kindle plugged in overnight. But I would check, by the method whitearrow suggested, in the morning. If it is still indexing, I would let it sit and check again after a while. If it appears to be stuck on a few, then you can delete and reload. I even reconverted a couple that were not indexing. Eventually all of mine did get indexed.
