I'm also in the Sony migration boat and have been following this thread with great interest as I'm on the tablet vs. KPW merry-go-round, trying to decide what to get to replace my T-1 (I'm getting tired of having to read with a paper clip by my side).

Dordale, do you use collections on your KPW? I have a large library of books in Calibre, and was wondering if the device collections can contain both downloaded Amazon and sideloaded non-Amazon books in one place. I have the Kindle app on my iPad, with my Amazon books in collections. I tried adding a non-amazon book by email and I was able to select it from personal documents and put it into an existing collection. If I can do the same with a KPW by sideloading from Calibre, that would make my mind up in a hurry. TIA for any help you can give - hope this question isn't off topic.
