And frankly after using it for close to a week now I know more surely than ever that even if I'll end up using the device for nothing but reading, I just want good old-fashioned directories without any of this so-called processing which completely ignores my folder structure. I understand that both KOReader and Cool Reader provide just that. Of course I could always return the device, or within the next three weeks anyway, but I really don't want to go back to the '09 Bebook anymore after having used this screen. *grins* |
And thank you for all the work that you are putting into this. I also hate the kobo software, processing and database method. With start menu, coolreader for epub and koreader for pdf, and all your books in a hidden directory (I use .books), if you ever do boot into nickel it won't notice them. I use calibre, ignoring the kobo driver, and connect/share to the device, then save the books using {author_sort[0]}/{author_sort}/{series}/{series_index}/{authors} - {title} , this works well for me.
