When you guys say everything disappears - are these Amazon .azw or topaz books that still have the DRM etc? All my books on my Kindle are Calibre managed into .mobi books, put into collections. So they really are more like personal documents in the mindset of Amazon. They definitely do not disappear when I move them to a different account.

I'm also really surprised to hear this because after the whole 1984 thing Amazon made the promise to never remove a book from a Customer's Kindle without their permission as it also removes notes etc.

My Mom's Kindle is all Amazon drm'd files. I don't think she uses Collections because I don't think she'd know how. But she's certainly never said anything to me about her books disappearing when I move her Kindle to my account to give her a book.

If I get some time today I'll do a bit more testing with my old Kindle. I don't want to risk the K3 losing files, I've spent way too much time as it is making it look exactly how I want.
