Have you actually got this to work on mobi files that you got from somewhere else and using the kindle 2 (facebook integration ) ? I still have it show up as a personal document when i highlight and share the quote when i use to actual kindle to do it. Maybe there is something that you have changed that I don't. I know the asin is the key yet, when i added it to my file of item 113 i now see book description is enabled on the kindle however, the facebook sharing thing still shows it as a personal document.
