What are the must have plugins to use Calibre with Kobo effectively?
I searched around installed these 4

Kobo Utilities
Looks like this will allow me to update metadata in books, and work with collections inside of Calibre.

KoboTouchExtended
I guess this allows for epubs to be converted to kepub?

That's what I have so far. Any other suggestions? Should I convert my books now, or wait until I get the thing and convert as I copy over to the device?

Any advice is welcomed!

Thank you.
I only use KoboTouchExtended. I don't use Kobo Utilities.

As for converting to kepub, you don't need to. When you connect your Kobo to Calibre and send books to the device, KoboTouchExtended will automagically convert as it sends. So you will have a kepub on the Aura and still have an ePub or whatever format on your hard drive.
