I wonder if there's a way, in some future version of Calibre, to overcome this problem as it's conceivable other people are experiencing it.

BTW, I think the problem also drastically slowed down transfer time because book transfers are way zippier now that I've uninstalled the Android driver.
3rd party USB devices can/do exist internal to products made by others.
The Laptop maker might be unaware that one of their vendors ceated on a USB id.
Of course, it could simply be an error that caused the wrong ID to be added to the Android PI

UPC/EAN barcode is another common area that gets cheats trying to avoid industry assignment fees.
