It was important to understand why there was a wireless device function and why there was a content server function. Pretty soon I was sending books from Calibre AND alternatively uploading from the app. This is really wonderful--finally I can use the functionality of Calibre on a reading device. It might even cause me to start reading on my Fire rather than my Paperwhite, which I generally prefer because of eInk. Or at least I can browse my library in bed with the Fire, choose a book there, then go to the Paperwhite to read it. I really appreciate the ever-expanding world of Calibre, and think this app is underpriced if anything.
Thanks for the feedback.

We have ordered an HD so we can better support the kindle line. Once it arrives next week I get the chance to discover all the ways that Amazon's Android is different from Google's (the Nexus line). What fun.
