But in earnest, maybe this can be such an alternative you are looking for.
I wrote it for my Iliad, but kept it in a way that enhancing it for some other reader shouldn't be too hard. Actually, I just wrote a plugin that works for my newly bought Sony. What this plugin does is just copy the book to the appropriate location, i.e. /Volumes/SONY505/database/media/books/ for me.
I'm not yet too familiar with the Sony and still have to figure out how things work in detail...

As Catalog (that's its name) is written in Java, it runs on any platform - except for Windows which requires you install a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) - before you can start it.
