It seems to only work properly with books you buy from Amazon. I did for tests put some stuff on Amazon's Cloud and have it delivered to my Kindle Touch and Kindle DXG. Unless it's actually already Mobi or downloaded from Amazon for Kindle, Amazon is worse at Conversions than LibreOffice + Calibre.

Sync is very much an overrated thing, and in 30+ years of IT, I've never seen it be reliable. It's fast enough find where you were on another gadget. It's not like trying to match up 100s of emails.
Also Sync ONLY works for each vendor. No use between Aldiko or Bluefire (both preferable to Kindle App on Android), Kobo, Kindle, Calibre etc.
Sync only works with a Data connection on.
So my conclusion is that Sync is worthless.
Also Everyone I know apart from me only reads eBooks on ONE device, EITHER their phone app, their Kindle eInk or their Kobo eInk.

Last time this came up lots of folk were reading a book on two or more devices. In my case Fire and K3 Keyboard with G3
Sync works fine on Kindle with all my books when loaded as Personal Documents even when converted by Amazon. Pity it doesn't work for PDFs.
