1) Does this plugin handle the case that there are two different versions (lets say theres a .mobi and a az3w)... will it aggregate the annotations from the same title (across both versions)?
I think so. The annotations are coming from clippings file. I can't see anything that distinguishes the format. As long as they have the same title and author, the should get aggregated.

2) How do I get annotations from My Kindle Fire (I normally read on the PW2) .. ?

I thought that Kindle Personal documents wont sync the highlights I make on Personal Documents, so I'd have to hook up the kindle fire to calibre to grab its annotations? Would they combine with my regular kindle's annotations without a problem?
The plugin doesn't have an function for the Fire. And I don't think it will see annotations added on the Fire and synced to the PW2. Unless they get put into the clippings file during the sync process. Hopefully someone who uses both can confirm.

I don't know if support for the Kindle Fire can be added. I don't know how the annotations are stored on the device. This would need someone with a Kindle Fire to investigate and write the handler. I am happy to help, but writing and debugging the code without the device is impractical.
