Thanks for the offer. Well, via VPN trick I might get exactly the same results as you. But the interesting thing is that my Keyboard is a wifi only version and of course I don't set any VPN-s, proxies and other things to connect the device to the whispernet (or what is the name of it) and I always get the same results as if I loaded amazon site with VPN from a PC.

I don't really understand how this whispernet works but I get the wifi signal from a Hungarian network. So I think you can connect from anywhere to the whispernet where there is a wifi connection and the site or the Kindle store (on Kindle devices) show the results in accordance with the country settings and billing address.

Because if you connect from Europe (for example via VPN + a European country + billing address) or try to connect from the US but with for example PW3, then you'll get the same "not available" messages.



Well, they can be easily found if you sign in from the US. Otherwise they seem to be non-existent.

But I don't really understand the conception of selling these apps. If they are already drm protected anyway, why don't they sell them worldwide or with discount? Moreover, if it's true that they're deprecated.



Yes, and those apps (I refered to) with adult contents have also a kindle ebook version, and the publisher is the same, but at the same time app is not available while the ebook version is. Just like in case of Fluid, but I'm gonna write some other titles as well.

And what about my other questions about PW3?

like: .active-content-data folder on PW3 (why?)

There is the "active" inscription next to the apps in my library listing and the context menu consist of the same items: Add to Collection, Open, Description, Support, Get Latest Version, Delete. But when I tap to the Open I get something like: this type of content is not compatible with this device. But if it's true, why DOES it recognize the active content at all?

I have the version 5.7.4.1, so can it run somehow azw2 apps

I wondered if there is a way to use dictionaries for the texts of azw2 apps?
On the Fluid one, what probably happened was the app either didn't go over as well as the developer hoped or people couldn't figure out how to use it and the developer was spending major time doing customer service.
Whichever it may have been, it sounds like the developer didn't want to keep it up for sale.

Oh and on your first link, I said no clue as to why it doesn't work for you.
