I've done this just fine with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 and my PW. The key is that one of the devices (in this case the tablet) must have USB host, and you must use an OTG cable, not a regular USB cable. If both of those conditions are present, the Kindle shows up in the tablet's file manager just like any other hard drive, and you can transfer files back and forth easily.
