No where to leave comments on the post, but I wanted to point out that the iPad has twice the pixel density on both axis' meaning that it has exactly 4x the resolution. So, icons should be set to 144x144.
Re:Calibre and Project Gutenberg: Liberate Your eReader. on Saturday March 24, 2012 @11:19PM (#3751601)
kijin,

I used "The Idiot" because that was the book that I was reading at the time of this writing. Using Calibre doesn't directly combat DRM, but the time you spend using it as a broker for consumption is time you are not spending in the B&N store buying books in a restricted format.

Though it may seem silly to read public domain books when there may be something new that you want to consume, if you can forfeit that experience of a new book, it is a great form of protest.
