3. until the new firmware arrives, am I correct in that I can drop purchased ebooks into calibre and that will allow me to transfer them to my jetbook?
Thanks and I'm sure I'll have more questions once the jetbook arrives.
Cheers

I also only have the JetBook Lite (JBL), but most of your questions
have been addressed in this forum.
1. Oddly, the JBL has no French Dictionary support, perhaps the regular
JetBook does? The posts that I've seen suggest not.
2. Part of the format selection is a matter of personnel preference.
For instance the JBL supports a number of formats but I prefer the way
epub gets displayed, with it's line spacing - others prefer pdb files for
their tighter spacing.
3. Calibre does NOT work on ebooks that have DRM encryption applied
to them. You will have to remove the DRM for Calibre to be able to work
with purchased files that came with DRM.
Luck;
