No, I did not do anything to the Sony Reader, and I don't even know what are "fields for creating collections"

The 'link' is in the embedded 'Globe and Mail' recipe: just use 'download now', it will generate Globe and Mail epub in the Calibre's list of books; then if you connect Sony PRS-600 to the computer via USB, Calible will download the epub to the Sony reader. Disconnect the USB, when Sony wakes up from the USB stupor, open the Globe and Mail book on it and start flipping pages. You may flip through couple of first articles without a problem, but very soon - this always happens to me within first 50 pages - when you press 'next page', the Sony freezes and I have to do 'reset' to bring it back to life (well, may be if I waited another 10 min. the Sony would wake up by itself)

I think that today at night, when I get home, I might be able to come up with a small epub file that causes the reader to freeze: I was playing with the contents of the directory that

ebook-convert globe_and_mail.recipe <dir>

created and was building the epubs from it with

ebook-convert <dir>/index.html ttt.epub

and downloading them to the Sony PRS-600 via the Calibre - I'm just trying to find out which exactly generated HTML page causes the Sony to freeze.
