I use Calibre for all my ebook management already. It's just that sometimes I wish I didn't have to make sure I had both an epub and a mobi version of everything I want to read, or might want to read. Agreed that it does a great job of converting books. But between the duplicate formats of all my ebooks, plus having both original files and the files Calibre puts into its library, my whole ebook library resembles Microsoft code: four times the actual size it needs to be.
Oh well, this is needless fiddling at this point. I won't even have the device for a couple more days. Then we'll see.
Your home networking solution is way more complicated than I'd want to put up with. The router I got with Verizon FIOS seems only to support WEP, so that's what I use.
