My Win7 PC sees the IQ as a removable drive so, no Calibre doesn't recognize the IQ.

Aldiko works really good but the Pocketbook Software allows you to navigate by chapters even if there's no TOC. I'm reading Eye of the World in Aldiko with night settings and it's a good experience.

One nice thing you can do in Aldiko is use the volume button on the side to turn pages. The volume button doesn't work in the eReader app to turn pages.

I end up turning the background grey on adliko and adjusting the brightness to where ever I'm reading....just a great reader so far.
The only store in the US that has this is in Kansas City, AFAIK. It's easy enough to order and return it through Dulin's Books.
