Amazon have made the collections mechanism in the Touch inaccessible to the Calibre/Kindle Collections combo, but it is still possible to use it for either the Kindle NonTouch or the Kindle Keyboard.

I should not enjoy having to create my collections one book at a time!

In my case, this is reason enough to prevent my buying the Touch.
Ditto, this is also what's primarily keeping me from buying a touch.


At the end of an amazon purchased book in the touch, do you get a page with share and other books purchased by readers/by this author (like the keyboard), or does the book just come to an end (like the fire)?
