I am a Kindle 3 owner, and we really need a collection manager to manage the books on the Kindle. I was wondering if you guys have a collection manager for your readers? Not sure if it is relavant or how it works for you guys, but we make collection folders, for me I name them with the authors name, then I put all the books by that author in that collection. So when I turn on my Kindle, it shows me all of my collections by author name. So if I want to read Men At Arms by Terry Pratchett, I find the Terry Pratchett collection and open it, and then find that book.

Putting new books that you have added to your Kindle, from within the Kindle, is a pain. What we need is a program that works on the computer and lets us manage the books on the Kindle. I just got off the chat line with an Amazon rep, he has a Kindle, but he has ten books on it. I have 2800. He doesn't have a clue what I am talking about when I say we need a way to manage the collections.

So how do you guys with a lot of books, manage them on your ereader, or is that a valid question?
