I understand that you usually have to add to the Calibre library first, and then have the program transfer the files to the device itself.
Without the ePub upgrade, the 500 is not seen as a USB mass storage device. It needs a USB driver for Calibre and Reader Library to be able to communication with the 500. Best bet is if you can, send the 500 in for the upgrade. It's well worth it.
