except that is going to cost you $25 to $30 a month plus maintenance (it would actually be CHEAPER to buy webhosting than to run your own web server) unless you purchased a very low power no moving parts machine (say a linux or ce style pda) to run 24/7 but then you could not use calibre.
ie do the math on your electrical consumption to run that computer your sitting in front of 24/7
even my laptop consumes 90watts which comes to $8.42 cents a month to run plus the VERY high maintenance you would incur using a modern laptop to run it.
even a normal desktop that is old and used consuming 200 watts will run you $19 a month in electrical usage alone.
now if you can run if from a PDA now that would be pretty nifty :-)
would still prefer not to abuse the whispernet though.
