I am not all that tech savvy and will need some explanation, I am afraid and will be asking plenty of questions. I even like the slider! Didn't think I would. I can grip it and it won't turn a page but just a light nudge up or down is sufficient to change pages. So, I can hold it easily with my left hand. Bye. Thanks for being here.

I'm happy that you like it so far. Yes, Calibre works well with the jetBook. I use it to convert my files to ePub, then save them to disk. It puts them in a folder structure that works well on the jetBook.
I use a USB 2.0 card reader instead of saving directly to the jetBook because the jetBook only supports USB 1.1, and it is very slow. Once I have saved to the card, I can insert it into the jetBook, and it picks up the new books right away.
