Hi,

I have a K4NT that I have never connected to Amazon. I'd like to use WLAN to push books to it using my own server instead of using Amazon's server. I also don't want to send usage logs to Amazon. I don't plan on buying ebooks from Amazon (for now).
1. What do I have to change on the kindle to make it connect to my servers instead of Amazon's when I enable WLAN?
2. What services to I need to provide on my server to emulate Amazon's?
Can I use some of the stuff that is available for the Kindle 3? One thing I can't do with the Kindle at the moment is use categories. It seems they are only available after you have allowed the Kindle to connect to Amazon. I'd like to define my own categories on the kindle or on the server.
