Excellent idea! Collections! Folders!
The problem you are facing is that http:// tells the reader to go off the device to the web.

To work, mobigen and the ebook reader need to support some sort of file:// convention which causes the e-book reader to be (re)launched with book indicated on the device.

I tried it with a simple doc.txt file, I couldn't make it go, so your chances are slim here, but if you found a way (hint to Lab126 SW team), you could become famous!
