Calibre Server 3.0 won't download on Sony Reader T3

I like to use Calibre's server so I can fire up my Sony Reader T3 and download books to the micro sd card on my Sony. It worked fine in Calibre 2.x. Then I uploaded Calibre 3. Turned on the server, and I could download 1 book. And that was that. Afterwards, I couldn't get it to download the books at all.

1. I added a new user/password. Turned on the server.

2. Open the browser on the T3 went to the url and it asked for user/password. I put the new user in.
It changed the url to http://url:8080/mobile (okay that is fine, in the past by default it was the mobile version anyway).

3. I can see my list of books. I click on the epub link that would start the download, but now I get the error Download Unsuccessful. I thought maybe it didn't like going to the external card. So I went back into my sony settings changing the download to download to the device. Still no love.

4. I've uninstalled Calibre. Making sure Calibre 2.x wasn't in it, then reinstalled 3.0. Again I can get to the server but I can't download on the Sony 3. I tested this with an android tablet I have. It DOES download the books. Which is fine and good, but I do my primary reading on my sony device.

Anything I can do to remedy the issue or just go back to the old days of plugging a usb to my computer and putting the books on the device that way? Or should I just wait for something in 3.0.1?
