that's exactly right but you buy the device from the ebay seller (even that poster did that) and agree with her to forego the warranty. You can buy books direct from ebookwise with no problems afterwards.
I once contacted the ebay seller before for info (and have stupidly lost it) but it explained in detail the type of converter to buy and so I'm not too worried about that part.
In one of the discussion posts following Dear Author's review of ebook readers, it is suggested that the ebay seller is actually related to the people that run ebookwise.
