If you delete the archived books then calibre will show that they are not on the device. You can always download them again if you need to by going to the Kobo website and bookmarking the deleted books you want to download.

Maybe an option could be added to a future Kobo Calibre device plugin to allow archived books to be considered as not on the device (I prefer it the way it is, so if that happens I hope it is an option only :-)

Is there any way to have the 'home' screen be set as the library page instead of Kobo's widget or whatever you want to call it? Not any kind of huge issue, but it's what I'd prefer and am used to coming from Kindle.
Not that I know of, unless there is a hack somewhere. In an earlier firmware version there used to be a back button so that if you opened a book from the library listing you could tap the back button to get back there. Unfortunately they did away with that and so you have to go to the home screen and then to the library listing. I really hope they bring back the back button in a future firmware update.
