Just a little update - I have actually reinstalled my laptop with ubuntu 8.1 as I got really pissed off with windows. While no expert with linux - I can find my way around...

An interesting observation is that Calibre running on the same PC but under linux seems to be about twice as fast !! which is great.

I have discovered that you cant rescue meta data from the 505 and recreate a calibre library with this information intact. Therefore as a temp. measure I have manually backed up the library. All new books will be backed up as a second library - which I have tested and works fine.

I am unsure how to raise a feature request - 'Recreate Calibre Library with metadata from Ebook Reader (505) device'
