Kindle on Iphone to 505

onerubberducky · 03-05-2009, 04:44 PM

Let me be the first to ask;

Have an iphone-now you can get all of Amazon's ebooks for kindle on it-can I buy and then transfer to my 505?

I have a Windows machine and a Mac Book if that helps for flexibility.

I hope, I hope so.

I should add I am experimenting now, will post if successful.

There are posts that say you have to jailbreak your iphone in order to get the books onto your computer for conversion.

1. You still need to have a Kindle registered to your account.
2. You can copy books without jailbreaking.

You need to read through this thread to find details (it's long)

I could register my iphone and buy books and have them appear on my iphone (tried with a freebie).

Yep, see the thread Daffy indicated (msg 127). Someone already changed your kindlepid.py script so it would work with the iPhone kindle store s/n. You may want to incorporate it so it works with either s/n.
