Now if you begin on the Boox side, you need at least two operations - first copy your file to the server, second activate client on Boox. From usability perspective, I can't see any difference between that and using existing ftp server - all you have to do now is to start the server and copy the file (a small script can facilitate this)
Of course you may want your Boox-side client to run as a deamon and check the server periodically for new content (rss-style). Still in this there's little difference in usability compared to the first scenario (for user that is, technically these are two different things).

Right click in your computer on file and select "send via email" (or send it via Calibre). Select personal ebook reader email and send it. On Boox, select "Special Email Program" and it's done. Or cycle Boox standby power. No more steps than in a Kindle.
