The way to create a TBR Collection is to maintain the info in the calibre library. There are many ways to do this depending on which calibre columns you've currently set up to create Collections. For instance, if you're using the 'tags' column, just add a tag called TBR to each book you want to be in the list. Next time you connect you'll have a TBR Collection containing every book with the TBR tag which is also on the T1.

Alternatively, you could add a new custom column called 'tbr' (with possible values of TBR or blank) and add the new column (#tbr) to the list of fields you're using to create Collections (in the Sony PRST1 Device Interface plugin)
I finally got my collections straightened out. In the Device Interface plugin, the default must be authors, tags, series, which resulted in creating over 5000 collections on my Sony. I took out authors and series, leaving only tags, and that brought me down to 129. I have fewer tags than that in Calibre, so I think most of the others were there as a result of loading books via dropbox instead of Calibre. I've cut those down, so I only have 22 collections now. Much easier to manage!
