When at home, it's easy to run Calibre daily, then sync via CC to my Nexus 7 (replaces my Kindle.) When traveling...? Not so much...
I can leave my laptop running at home, or ask my wife to start it daily. I can set up a windows task to run Calibre. What I can't do is sync my tablet using CC remotely. Unfortunately, IT policies prevent me from installing Calibre on my work laptop, etc.
So, a remote CC sync capability would be fantastic!

edit 2: I see now. Did not realize Calibre Cloud is an existing app. I read "CC" as Calibre Companion...

I confess to a bit of confusion.
The first post from NSILMike talks about "remote sync". I interpreted that as being a desire to connect as a wireless device to an instance of calibre running remotely. The remaining two posts move away from this notion of connecting remotely toward downloading from the cloud, which is a very different thing.
@NSILMike: what is your goal? Do you want to get access to the books in your calibre library from somewhere other than your home network? Or to connect as a wireless device to sync metadata and ...? Or to do something else?
BTW: in all my posts I use CC to mean Calibre Companion. I never use it to mean Calibre Cloud.
