Connecting Calibre and Forma
I went ahead and purchased the 32 GB Forma on the 19th and I'm sure it will show up one of these days. Got the confirmation email when I purchased it, but haven't gotten the shipped email yet.

I do have an Aura One eReader, so I have no problem with connecting to Calibre and side loading books. What I want to do is avoid the little gotchas that I ran into with the Aura, such as downloading all my ebooks from the Kobo store _before_ I connect to Calibre to avoid duplicates (though there are some formatting advantages to using the deDRM version). Also the issue of series where I have some books in the series from Kobo (actually originally the Sony store) and some from Amazon. How to make sure they all show up in the same series grouping. Is there a way, or does the series info get tagged in a different way than Calibre use? Also, any little things like reading list and the like would be helpful.

Thanks
