AFAIK none of the CC competitors have implemented a USB interface to their app. They are all network based in one form or another (cloud, OPDS, etc).
OK, it's an operating system limitation. Wish I'd known that before I beamed my negativity your way - my sincere apologies for my snarky tone. I can understand your not wanting to research and write some kludge-around fighting with what the OS wants to let you do, and your code is yours to release or not as you desire. Actually, once my books and categories are in place, I'm happy with your program.

I was originally planning to run it only on my new inkBOOK, replacing my old one that's broken, so I wasn't going to buy a second copy. I'm actually thinking of leaving it installed on the tablet I used as an intermediate step in migrating the library to the inkBOOK. Do I need to purchase another license?
