Ow darn... so if you have a newer version of Kindle4PC, which supports that new KFX-version, it could be that you are going to get a non-crackable book, just as with ADE 3 or 4?
It could (would?) also mean that Calibre cannot convert that format into EPUB, and KindleUnpack cannot extract an EPUB? Even when buying from Amazon, I don't keep their AZW3 format. I either extract the EPUB using KindleUnpack (which mostly works), or convert to EPUB (if KU's result is not good), then fix that, and convert to AZW3, keeping the EPUB as well.
This is not funny, having to stick with ADE 2.01, hoping that it will be supported forever (it won't), and now also having to keep track of what Amazon is doing, to be able to undrm and convert the books.
Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea to get 750 ebooks as soon as possible, including those Delphi classics.
BTW, I don't have problems with my KPW1 either. It works perfectly, except for the Time To Read; sometimes it just cuts in half for no apparent reason. It is always spot on (checked it a few times), and then, suddenly, the time is EXACTLY half of what it should be.
