Yes, it's very weird. I can transfer the news to my Sony 505 just fine.

I'm not sure if the issue is in the Kindle2 or perhaps something to do with the receipe and/or mobi format. But as I said I did a fresh conversion of two books to mobi and transferred them to the kindle with no issues.



Update. I just tried with my laptop computer here at work using an older version of calibre - 0.6.20 and got exactly the same results. It copies the files and creates the directory but it does not show up in the book listings on the Kindle. Very weird. -- definitely looks like an issue with the Kindle2...
