Save to Disk. I hadn't updated calibre recently so the Aura wasn't recognized as a device yet. That's working now and I've been reading up on the drivers and the shelves plugins, but I'm not sure what I want. I have no interest in syncing with my existing Kobo account (I created a new one for the Aura) and I already have many of my books in EPUB format, so I might just use that, there seem to be advantages and disadvantages to each format. I'm a fan of the KISS principle.

I am finding the response time of the Aura a little slow, swipes seem to register better than taps, and hopefully I'll figure out what's needed to get the device to recognize my actions.
