As others mentioned, the eBook Library software does support drag-n-drop. But instead of dropping it on the "Books" spot on the left-hand side, you drop it on the header element (such as "Library" or the reader). It's a little non-obvious...

Same thing with making new collections. There's an unintuitive "+" symbol in the lower left corner of the eBook Library window that lets you create new collections. I agree that the button is a little hidden, and a r-click option when you click on the Library or Reader would do wonders.

(I'm using v2.00.00.07200 of the software.)

I'm using the stock cover on my 505 and find that it works well. I usually open the front cover (but don't fold it back) and hold it in my left hand. My thumb ends up between the two wheels on the lower front of the unit (in the big blank area). It's pretty comfortable - about the same as a large paperback, but I usually change pages with my right-hand.

(I've had mine for almost a week and I'm pretty pleased with it.)
