Just out of curiosity, would the driver be any different than the Bebook Mini since it's the same hardware? The Pocket Pro didn't have any installation disk, it was just plug and play. Windows identifies the Pocket Pro as a Linux File-Stor Gadget USB device. Looks like it's using 4 driver files: disk.sys, drvmcdb.sys, PartMgr.sys, and SiRemFil.sys.

Anyway, I've been using Calibre to copy files to my Pocket Pro (which calibre tells me is a Bebook mini) for a week now and haven't had any trouble, so hopefully I'm not doing something I shouldn't!

By the way, Calibre is a great program! I've been using it with my Gen3 for almost a year. I throw money in the tip jar when I can and should do it more often, it's definitely worth it!
