[RMOP]

I removed the DRM from personally-owned Mobipocket versions of The Oxford Concise English Dictionary and the Britannica Concise Encyclopedia. These are the two single most expensive eBooks I've purchased, and I LOVE them. I first used them on my Palm TX, then moved them to my SymbianOS phone, and now want to use them on my Android phone with the Kindle reader, which is working great with the bulk of my Mobipocket books.

Removing the DRM was fairly simple, and the DRM-free versions of both books can be read and navigated on my Mobipocket Reader on my PC. Both are recognized on my Android and open w/o a problem. However, the crucial navigation and search hyperlinks do not work. Meaning, in the COED Table of Contents, the first two hyperlinks, "Look up word" and "Full text search" are dead. The OTHER links, "Cover page," "About this book," "Abbreviations," "Pronunciations" and "Lookup tips" take you to the appropriate sections. I can manually page through the dictionary, and links within those pages work. I just can't search as needed.

For the Britannica, it's much the same. "Encyclopedia Search" and "Image Index" are dead links on the Android, whereas "About this Book" is live. I can page through the articles, but there's no way to search. BTW: one can, in theory use the Android Search function, but of course it's useless in an encyclopedia.

I'm about resigned to re-purchase both of these items from the Kindle store, though it seems a shame to have to do so.

Has anyone gotten Mobipocket versions of these items to work on the Android Kindle Reader?

Cheers and Thanks.
