Next week when I have reasonable network access I will look at implementing cover caching. That will help keep performance acceptable for mord normal use cases while extending the number of books that can be kept in the device's library beford running out of memory.

OK. Perhaps use the database functionality in Android to store metadata? That way you could allow many more books, and also speed up start of the app? The transfer is rather slow so it should allow plenty of time to add/uppdate data in the database as each book is transfered.
I keep almost my entire ebook collection on my Xoom. At least the "good" part of it. 1200 was the fiction ePubs. Then there is the non-fiction and the PDF:s.
Today I use an external 32 GB Micro SD-card that I remove and update from Calibre. Would be nice to be able to update via WiFi instead...
