I think Cava nailed my problem. After a disastrous experience in the morning my card was finally recognized by calibre. So I tried again to send some books. Like Cava I got the error about not enough space left on the card (totally wrong - I have 2GB card which is less than 20% full). My book collection is rather extensive - around 400 ebooks. I have a habit of keeping them all even after I finish reading.

@speakingtohe My system never had any problems with recognizing, mounting and reading the card every time I plugged it in, which made me suspicious of calibre in the first place. I checked logs to be sure. I even tried chkdsk on the card (again - looks clean). Funny thing is that the card is recognized at random. Last time I did a full reboot to be sure I have a clean start and no luck. Then I left my computer switched off for a few hours and surprise - next time calibre can see my card again!

@kovidgoyal Reformatting doesn't solve the problem. I've already tried it - last time I'd reformatted the card and put all my books back again. New batch of books and the problem is back. I wonder if I've managed to I hit some limits on FAT32 itself (too long path and filename or something). I'm tempted to move my collection to another card and see what happens.
