I got a nag email from Amazon that my current K4PC will stop working on september 15th (was on version 1.10.something) and that I should download and install 1.11.0 and later which are still free. Followed the link to install the latest (in my case that was 1.12.2 build 40996) and works same as the old version. Didn't have to extract a key again, and books with advanced typesetting download as AZW3 files which dedrmed just fine with tools 6.1.0 as plugin for calibre 2.30.0. I see no reason at all to upgrade the tools or calibre until KFX format (dedrm and convert in calibre) is supported.

Do you each have an example of a freebie that does this? I have seen reports that some books that Amazon says are the new format aren't.

Jon - one that K4PC downloads in the new format.

DuckieTigger - one that K4PC does not download in the new format even though it does elsewhere.
