Darryl; we are of the same mind. Calibre makes me happy. I'm considering buying my 1st kindle after my old Nook Touch finally died. I've been using samsung tablets for years as my ereaders, but need an 'outside' e-reader now that my Nook has bit the dust. And yes, I'm anal and travel with my tablet AND my e-reader.

Do you ever send your drm free calibre books BACK to the kindle for any reason? Is it possible? Before buying a kindle, I need to make sure it will play nicely with Calibre. Thanks!
