See here. Kovid says:
"calibre is pronounced as cal-i-ber not ca-li-bre. If you’re wondering, calibre is the British/commonwealth spelling for caliber. Being Indian, that’s the natural spelling for me."

And, by the way, what would be the right way to write it?
a) calibre
b) Calibre

Kovid seems to use "calibre" most of the time (e.g., see above), and that's what I try to use, but I'm not consistent. There have been offers to take up a collection so he can afford the capital letter.
