Err .. nope.
Actually I haven't ever heard that in earnest.

But if you have more than say 40 or 50 odd books and you have this weird idea--at least one Kindle developers haven't thought of-- that you'd rather have them neatly organized, you should look into the "collections" issue.

There's enough reading matter on that already, so I'll just say, that the Kindle was never good at this stuff, but it just got worse last fall with the arrival of so called "cloud collections". I have about 250 unread items on my PW2, and even though I will experiment with a plugboard remedy, I might still send it back. I would then return ruefully to my refurb Sony T2 which takes its collections from my Calibre tags (Business, Novel, Essay, Poetry, Food, Medicine, etc.). Yes, yes, it has a myriad downsides to Kindle afficionados, I know, but collections are not one of them

If you should only need to have a dozen or so ebooks on your Kindle (and collect print bibles instead, like he who's name may not be mentioned, unless you want half the forum frothing at the mouth [insider joke off]) then, hey, no problem.
