I use Calibre as well, however the reason you can't edit metadata in the Sony software is that the reader itself completely ignores metadata. There is no way to see the descriptions and all that directly on the reader. The only thing you can do is reconvert a book and have Calibre insert the metada at the beginning of the book (after the cover). However, you can edit the category tags in the Sony Software just by clicking on them twice (NOT double click). You can also drag books into the various categories. I mention this because Calibre does not seem to offer that option when books are on the reader. Calibre can tell you what a book has as far as tags and whether the book is in your library. It can also delete books, but it doesn't let you edit metadata for books on the reader itself. You have to copy it back to the Calibre library, edit the metadata, delete the copy on the reader and then copy it back. . .
