well where IS the default "deliver-to" device setting, it's not anywhere that I can see under manage content and devices/ settings pages?

[ update - let me partially retract that, under each device I have a drop down action menu and " set as default device"is an option in that drop down list. for both my fire and my voyage- But I still don't see anything saying your current default device is... ]

and I don't think the "deliver to "question is asked when you buy kindle book via PC , through that may depend on exactly how you go through checkout, My last two book purchases were made using no-rush credits and they just zapped through on 1 click.

i think it is the case that fire tablets work to different rules- all of the personal documents management system is different to that on the Voyage.

As an aside, I have no idea where amazon now puts my actual amazon books on the fire tablet. They are not visible in the books folder ( via ES file manager) and an android search for a book title has no hits. I suspect it's this new KFX format - they are broken into obscurely named bits & hidden in obscurely named folders? but sideloading a book into the books folder via calibre companion still works- i.e. that still registers as a book.
