The portable calibre keeps its settings/plugins and of course all your books all within the "Calibre Portable" folder.

Get it from here: http://calibre-ebook.com/download_portable

If you use it, let me know if there are any problems.

On a technical note, I was able to get this to work by doing several hacks to workaround Microsofts' DLL loading policies, including a rather cool custom DLL loader
great, i love it so far. i anticipate possible problems with files i add to the key (sigil for one) opening using the copy on the key. we'll see.

thanks for creating and maintaining such a great application.
