Kindle for webOS

Hey folks, I'm back (sort of) with a question/request for help.

Not sure if any of the gurus here know much about webOS but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask.

I'm spending my time on the PreCentral HP Touchpad forum for now. The new Kindle for webOS app was released this past week and already folks are looking for way to "extend" its use so that personal documents and non-Kindle mobi books can be added to the Touchpad.

It doesn't seem to work the same way as iOS with a drag an drop into the correct folder with a DRM-free mobi file.

After a little playing, it looks as though books books must be named with the ASIN number and there is at least one related .json file.

I have tried both adding a book title named file as well as an ASIN number named file of the same book ("A Dangerous Man" and "B000JMKR34_EBOK") and neither version is recognized by the Touchpad.

Any ideas on what we should try?

Thanks!
