There are three ways to go about this, in increasing order of complexity:
1) Leave everything as is, and buy your books from Amazon through Kindle for PC. That'll give you the AZW3 Calibre can edit and convert to Mobi afterwards when sending the book to your DX. This is what I did when I still used my DXG.
2) Install
Duokan on your DX. That will let it read DRM-free Epub, but it won't handle DRMed Amazon books. But you can dualboot the original Kindle OS to handle those.
3) Upgrade your DX to
OS 3.1 using a donor K3/Kindle Keyboard. That will let it handle AZW3 natively.
