Is it me or Calibre, but communication via USB to my Kindle DX is incredibly slow. Every time Calibre detects the Kindle, it spends literally 4 or 5 *minutes* downloading the entire book list from the device. There doesn't appear to be any way to stop this painful process and evidently, Calibre throws all that information away when you exit.
To make matters worse, syncing up files is similarly painfully slow.
Currently, the only way to use Calibre reasonably (and it's a wonderful program for this), is to use it to download the feeds I want, then exit and then connect the Kindle and copy all files - in just a few seconds.
Is there some critical configuration setting for the Kindle that I am missing? This can't possibly be the way Calibre was designed to operate.
Thanks,
El
