Sideloading books is not working well, after connecting a Window opens "Android xxx", but is not a normal Finder Window. You can drag and drop books in to the tolino book folder, but should only drop a couple (say 10), too many results in an error "cannot be copied" or something like that and the tolino is often disconnected after that. Reboot and/or unpluging repluging is then needed.
Calibre:
As I am still on mojave, my older Calibre version is 4.23 (imho the last version to work on mojave), newer versions require newer macos, might test it with newer calibre on a Winstick with Windows.
Often Calibre does not see the tolino, and then it does it is much the same as drag&drop: a few books work, then it has a communication error with the tolino. See above, much the same.
Not very good.
The last version of Calibre, 5.32, has now added support for the Tolino Vision 6.
Don't know how much better it will work now, as for the fact I haven't bought a Vision 6 yet, but I hope it will be just as neat as with the Paperwhite.
Can anyone confirm? Black Friday is coming ...
