Wow. Thanks. I did not know the significance of that setting.

Could I suggest that the "Profile description" explain a bit more the significance of this setting. For instance, it is not obvious that by selecting "Kindle", any news source I download will not contain the date in the title like it will for other profiles (I presume.)

The Profile description for the Kindle describes the screen size as 525 x 640. I know that the screen size is actually 600 x 800. Why the discrepancy? The one thing I notice is that calibre-generated covers (the image with the vertical books) do not fill my screen entirely. There is a white band at the top and bottom of the screen, so it looks like the image may be formatted for the more squat 525 x 640 aspect ratio.

Should the Kindle profile be changed? Should/could I use another profile with a matching aspect ratio and still have the date not included in the title? Are there any other features the Kindle profile provides?
