If all the books I have are epub and pdf, I thought all I needed to put them on the PEZ was Adobe Digital Editions. Is there a way of organizing within ADE? Or better yet... I've read that when plugged in, my computer will see the PEZ as another drive. Can I just organize books into folders using Windows Explorer? If this is too complicated a question, then just ignore it and I'll try to figure it out when I get it. (I'm guessing 2-3 weeks.) And now I think I'm done asking questions until I've actually got my Pocket Pro in my hands.
Calibre is a work in FAST progress and the guide is basic.
IMHO Windows Explorer works for a few dozen titles, especially if you current organization is the way you want it. Copy a directory Branch... Paste to the PEz.

There are now 600+ titles on My PEz. I have 2 templates Series, NoSeries

I can Sort or Filter in Calibre and Send (only) preferred formats for dozens of books with a few clicks.
I can use the Device View to remove unwanted entries (not as flexible as the Calibre Library view because not all the same info can be linked to the PEz files)
If you have a Card reader, you can use Calibre to write to that and be ready to pop the SD card into your PEz. You can read while charging
