However, for now, my Kindle is really very responsive, and a joy to use, because the bulk of my books are not on it, but rather stored in Calibre on my PC. I generally have 25-30 books in each of two collections (General and Juvenile), and when they have all been read, they are replaced by new collections from Calibre.
This approach has the added added advantage that sorting and cataloguing is hugely easier in Calibre than on the Kindle. Also, Calibre is free, and you can hold many more books there than you ever will on your Kindle. Calibre libraries numbering tens of thousands of volumes are not uncommon. |
I agree that Calibre can be a good way of dealing with my book collection. Now I have a huge number of books on my PW, and it's in fact difficult and/or time comsuming at the least to browse through page after page, a total of 81 pages in list view.
I have had some (limited) experience with Calibre on my desktop before. One thing I really disliked was the very frequent demand for upgrading to newer versions. But that has perhaps changed now, not demanding so frequent updates any longer (?) - it's a couple of years ago since I used Calibre.
