I hope this isn't covered somewhere obvious, but it probably is... sorry, I really have looked :-)

I have a Blackberry that I read on (with Mobipocket) and Calibre transfers to it just fine... but it always puts new books in the "eBooks" folder. Is there any way to change that?

My reason is that Mobipocket polls each book in the "eBooks" folder when you start the app. With several hundred books, this takes way too long, so I keep a "eBooks_storage" folder with my entire library (8Gb SD card) and then move whatever I'm reading at the moment over to eBooks.

Thanks for a great tool!
