If you use win 7 or above with Calibre it'll make no difference.

Journal mode is one of the parameters of the squlite database that is the heart of our KOBO readers. At some point in the development of the firmware journal mode was switched from 'delete' to 'wal'. I do not understand this completely but 'wal' is supposed to make for a more stable database so less corruption problems.

Since I'm a Luddite and still use Win XP with an earlier version of Calibre v2.0, the only version 2.x that will or might work with XP, this is important to me. I'm probably the only person that this applies to.
