Hi there, recently got myself a H2O (Kindle didn't suit my needs).

I've been wanting to buy books from various online stores (Barnes and Noble, Amazon etc), but being from Australia, our selections are smaller/pricier/etc etc.

I know you can use VPN's to bypass geolocks, that isn't an issue (I use hola). However, I tried getting a free ebook (manga) from Barnes and Noble (put in a US address) and it went through okay. Only problem is, it won't download.

Anytime I try to get anything from the kindle store (US address), it says it can't download as there's no kindle connected. I downloaded the kindle for windows app, but nothing...

Assuming I get this to work (been trying for a few hours so far...), you use the DeDRM thing and then Calibre, correct? From Calibre, it then can be put on the H2O and you're good to go! ...in theory lol

I have a feeling I'm missing something incredibly basic, so if anyone could lend a hand, that would be awesome!
