Well I find Reader slightly less clunky than ADE, but doubtless either would do.

I got one thing wrong - you can't simply drag the book from the Reader desktop to Calibre, but Reader makes a nice folder of books on Documents, and you can drag it into Calibre from there. Where does ADE put the books?
