I guess it would be fairly easy to find your kindle's PID.
You buy a book from amazon. You read it on the kindle and the first line is for example "Atlantis by David Gibbins".

So, because the PID is a ten character string, you create a macro which runs the command line "decrypter book.azw [random 10 character string]"

In each html file created there is automatically run a search for Atlantis.

It is difficult to have this word in random. It will take like what? 1, 2, 3 days but finally you will get your device's PID. Then you can decrypt any files you BUY and have them as DRMless files for any use you want.

Also, if for example I who don't have a kindle (and cant get one in europe) want a kindle only book could ask one of you guys to buy it and pay you it's price to you using paypal adding whatever extra costs there are!
