calibre looks like a wonderful product; thanks for putting the time and effort into it. so here's my question:

i have a sony prs-505. i started off without calibre, but with a decent number of books on my reader. i then found calibre, which found my reader, and i've used calibre to tag and rename the books directly on the reader. what i would like to do is to backup the reader contents into calibre so that the calibre library is identical to the reader contents.

i can obviously save all files from the reader to disk, then import those into calibre, but all my tags and renaming and such would be lost - or at least that's what i think.

what are my options here?
