Think of this:
For it work on your non amazon books, the Kindle would need to know what book it was, find an equivalent print edition of the book, and analyze the content of the print edition to find on what pages given text appears.

Depending on the implementation (like maybe the format of that .apnx file that someone mentioned) maybe other book sellers could implement a compatible feature...but I doubt it.

And even if Amazon was inclined to do it for books they didn't sell, I would not be happy about them snooping around in my non-Amazon books.
