Brian explained it perfectly. With CC and a high res tablet, my e-ink readers are now way behind in functionality. They have a few advantages (size, weight, battery life) but if I was to choose only one, I would choose my Nexus 7.2. I think it has a better battery life than my Nook HD. I was able to wirelessly transfer over 4000 items and it was fast and didn't drain the battery much. (CC drains the battery on my Nook much faster). Plus I am able to switch between my Calibre libraries much quicker (less freezing of Calibre).

If I want to create a reading list, I can add a tag such as 2013 TBR to some books. Next time I connect CC, the tag will be added to the books on the tablet. Then if I want to find my list, just go to 'tags,' '2' and there it is.

I will keep the eink readers I have, but am unlikely to buy any more. They seem outdated and clunky compared to using CC with a good tablet.

Thank you they are trying to get her oxygen levels up.

I agree eInk is great for my tired eyes but my N.7.2 is the best I own. Now I put CC on there even though Mantano does organization Moon+ does not. So now I can really see my books and this is much faster than exporting from Dropbox. Now I wish there was way to send my Kindle books via wireless from Calibre without them being added to CC that would make it perfect!

We need a Calibre wireless tranfer app.
