Alan...you really
hadn't made it clear that you were aware that PCs can use Calibre. And now that you've re-stated your point, it's much clearer what you were trying to say (at least to me). I guess that's why people need to be informed consumers...and that means doing some research above and beyond reading just one or 2 reviews. Considering the cost of these devices we love, we owe it to ourselves (and our pocketbooks) to investigate them thouroghly.
