Either I'm misremembering, then, or they've changed the chrome. Note that the way to add a book from Purchased to Reading is still referred to as "bookmarking," though.
|
They do have a "Bookmark" button to add books to "I'm Reading" from "Purchased". It's a weird name for the action.

If you add them to your library, they should. If you just download them directly, they won't.

I did both. I pressed the "Add to library" button when looking at the book details and then downloaded the epub. When I look at the details of these books on the site, they show as in my library. But, they are not in the Purchased list.
I'll watch for it. I just realised I haven't synced my Touch for a while. There are some books that haven't been downloaded to it, so I can see what happens there.

Checking for firmware updates is a significant process, and syncing also sends my delete instructions back up to the cloud. (I like to keep things tidy.)

The firmware doesn't come out that frequently and checking here will tell you if it has. The delete instructions aren't needed if you never download the books, but I can understand the keep it tidy.

Given the choice between (a) something I can do anywhere I have wifi with a single screen tap and (b) something I have to manually go through on my PC after digging out the cable, I'm gonna go with A every time. No contest.

You don't need to connect the device. Simply fire up the desktop application, let it sync to the server and do the deletes there. That will sync the deletes to server and the next WiFi sync to the device won't download that book. Or if it is already on the device, the book will be removed. But I get the convenience of doing it wherever you are.
