Hi all!
I got my Kindle DX few days ago. By Calibre application I sent some book (books i got from my friend) to my Kindle DX device. I was supprised that book titles and author names containg some (not all of them) non-english characters (slovak/czech) are displayed wrong. But !!! I am experiencing this problem only in Home (list of books in device). Non-english characters in book content are absolutely OK! My friend, which gave those books, deosn't have any problems on his Kindle 3. Books are in .MOBI format.

Books themselves are perfectly readable, but wrong titles and author names bother me crazy. Could You please help me to solve this problem?
