Take a look at the Kobos. They work seamlessly with Calibre. I haven't used tags on my Kobo Aura HD, but from my understanding of what I've read here, it works well. I'm sure someone else will chime in on this subject.

You do need to register your Kobo when you first get it--but you can can set it up with "dummy" information and then forget about it. I've had my Aura HD for a year and a half now, and the only time I had wifi on was when I first got it to do the one time registration. I *think* there may be a hack that would allow you to bypass the registration process altogether.

Out of all the Kobo models available, I'd suggest either the Aura H2O or the Glo HD. Both are great devices. I have an Aura HD which I like and find the bigger screen is nice. The H2O is newer, but with the same size (6.8") screen of the HD. Both devices have front lights. After using a device with a front light, I'd never want to go back. It really helps in lower light situations--not necessarily complete darkness (although it works then too).
