Hi,

If anyone wants to try from their Kindle to the Calibre Content server, I'm going to open up access to the server for a couple of days.

The only content that is shared are news feeds that Calibre has organized into Kindle periodicals.

Now, the instructions:

On your Kindle bring up the built-in web browser:

Press the Home button to go to the home scree
Press the Menu button to display the main menu
Using the 5-way controller scroll down to Experimental
Using the 5-way controller select Basic Web

Once the basic web application loads
Using the 5-way controller move the cursor highlight up to the web address box
Enter the following into the web address:

testbooks.gotdns.com:443

Using the 5-way controller, move the cursor right until the go to item is highlighted. Select go to.

This is connect to the Calibre Content Server. When prompted, enter username: calibre and password: calibre

If all goes well, the Calibre web page will load on your Kindle.

To download a periodical, select the mobi link next to a periodical.
