At the moment there is a bug so that for the new models (well, surely for PB903) you cannot create the catalogue while your device is connected to the pc, but you can send this file to the device.
It is rather neat, but of course the great thing would be if one could click on the name of the desired book-document and actually open it in the device. I asked if there was a way to do so in the Calibre forum, but apparently doing such a thing is device dependent. I have no idea of how to do it  but I thought I should relay the problem here in case somebody has already solved it! |
So I will not promise this feature as I would be killed again if not realized, but I gave the guys the code for Opds (that's the norm the Calibre catalogue is based on) and the guys are working the OPDS in the browser. This way it would be able to access the Calibre cstalogue and download the books wirelessly. That way you could administer the bulk of your books on your desktop and just download and use the books that you want or need on the spot.
I am already using this method with Aldiko and my IQ. (I have 15.000 epubs on my desktop
)
