Have you actually done this? I agree that the Desktop MobiPocket Reader can get the PID of supported devices such as the iLiad and the Cybook via USB, but I am surprised that this is also the case for the Kindle.
Once a Kindle's MobiPocket PID is known, it should be possible to read secure MOBI files on that Kindle by registering its PID for your purchased MOBI e-books, downloading them again to your PC, renaming them .azw and copying them to the Kindle. Since Amazon spies on what you have on your Kindle they may complain, but if the AZW=MOBI theory is correct the file should be readable.
