• Metadata download plugin for ozon.ru, enabled only when user selects russian as their language in the welcome wizard.


• Bambook driver: Allow direct transfer of PDF files to Bambook devices


• Driver for Coby MID7015A and Asus EEE Note


• Edit metadata dialog: The keyboard shortcut Ctrl+D can now be used to trigger a metadata download. Also show the row number of the book being edited in the titlebar


• Add an option to not preserve the date when using the 'Copy to Library' function (found in Preferences->Adding books)

Bug Fixes

• Linux binary: Use readlink -f rather than readlink -e in the launcher scripts so that they work with recent releases of busybox


• When bulk downloading metadata for more than 100 books at a time, automatically split up the download into batches of 100.


• When deleting books from the Kindle also delete 'sidecar' .apnx and .ph1 files as the kindle does not clean them up automatically


• Fix a subtle bug in the device drivers that caused calibre to lose track of some books on the device if you used author_sort in the send to device template and your books have author sort values that differ only in case.


• Fix scene break character pattern not saved in conversion preferences


• Keyboard shortcuts: Fix a bug triggered by some third party plugins that made the keyboard preferences unusable in OS X.


• Search box: Fix completion no longer working after using Tag Browser to do a search. Also ensure that completer popup is always hidden when a search is performed.


• Fix pressing Enter in the search box causes the same search to be executed twice in the plugins and keyboard shortcuts preferences panels


• Catalog generation: Fix error creating epub/mobi catalogs on non UTF-8 windows systems when the metadata contained non ASCII characters
