I've got Virtual PC (that I almost got rid of - no use for it) with Win2K and am, right now, attempting to install MobiReader, it keeps hanging at 90% (typical, IME) and hope that the USB will punch thru the OS'es when I get the device as I'd like to use the RSS feature thru MobiPocket (any comments on that feature?)

1 - There's no legitimate way to remove the DRM from a secured .AZW file to use in another MobiPocket-enabled device. Non-secured .AZW files can be renamed to .mobi and be read in MobiPocket Reader -- and I presume could be read on a Cybook.
2 - Yes, you can order books from Amazon and download to the PC instead of having them sent through the EVDO network to the Kindle. Books on your PC can be transferred to the Kindle with the USB cable. But, you can't buy Kindle books if you don't have a Kindle registered to your Amazon account.
3 - I love using the RSS feed feature of MobiPocket Reader. It works wonderfully.
