Thanks for the responses. I'm a little nervouse about installing the Beta so I'll wait for the full release.

As for the "reason", it's simple. I want to read my books on my Kindle in order of series.

As we all know, The Kindle sucks in this regard as it has no support of Series info/tags. I don't like the "change pub date/sort by date" method.

And sure, I changed my "send to device template" so when the books are saved on the Kindle, the series info is in the filename. Great. Awesome. Does me no good, as the Kindle is getting the title from the Metadata.

Now, if there was a "set metadata ON send to device" that would work. But for now, I need to change the actual title of the book to "[01] Storm Front". I'd rather it not be changed in Calibre but I can deal with that if that's what it takes for me to get the Title change on the Kindle.
