Does not appear to correctly handle certain characters in filenames on the device.

Calibre 1.18.0
English (UK)
Windows 7/64bit
iTunes version 11.0.4.4
plugin version 1.3.3
Goodreader
iPad version 1 running iOS5

I have a pdf in Goodreader with the title "Girl Genius, Vol. 01_Agatha Heterodyne - Phil Foglio (B\W).pdf"

The plugin throws an error when encountering this book but works correctly when it is deleted. It appears to be choking on some of the characters in the filename.

The error is:

calibre, version 1.18.0
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

u"could not open file u'/Documents/Girl Genius/W).pdf' for reading"

I forgot to mention this file was already on the iPad, put there by iTunes file transfer long ago. The error occurred during the initial metadata scan of files already on the iPad.

I've updated the plugin to version 1.3.4 with a patch that should properly handle illegal POSIX characters in the filename. Please install the latest update and confirm that it's working correctly for you. If there's still a problem, feel free to reopen this issue.
