When I first got my Kindle, I was managing books by placing them in folders according to genre and managing collections on the Kindle interface with Kindle Collection Manager. This system of sorting (sans KCM) worked pretty well with Duokan too...everything was easy to find through folders.
Eventually, I saw the light and started managing my device completely through Calibre and the collections plugin. (It's true, Calibre's greatness doesn't end at file conversion!)
Duokan might be fun to tinker around with, but for me, can't hold a candle to the Kindle's own firmware, especially when Calibre is part of the picture. What really puts my experience with Duokan into perspective is that even though I've installed it a couple different times, I haven't read a book or even a short story with it.
