I had some time to check this out today.
Yes, Calibre auto-creates Collections based on series as well as Tags (not a surprise).
As far as sorting series, that's actually pretty wonky:
It appears by default that the Reader will correctly sort books in a Collection (created based on the Series column), but it is a by product.
If you look at the "Sort By" options under the collection, it is sorting by "Added Order" by default. So Calibre is merely uploading the books in the series consecutively. If you manually dragged each book to the reader in a different order (say last to first) they will NOT be sorted properly.
If you have the correct date for the books and "Sort by Date" that will always work.
"Sort by author" may also work if all books in the series are by the same author AND the books have been added in consecutive order (Added Order is the secondary sort criteria.)
"Sort by Title" won't work, obviously. "Sort by File Name" won't work unless you've manually named the files with a number as a prefix.
Like I said, unless the T2 has a "Sort By Series" option or an old version of the T1 firmware does, you are only seeing a by-product of adding the books consecutively.
