I think that Python version might be too old. Use the one from NiLuJe's snapshots. You can check <KindleDriveLetter>:\extensions\MRInstaller\log\mr installer.log to see if there were any errors with installing packages.

Note, there's a bug in the Dec 10 Python release so you'll need to make a minor change.

Next snapshots will be fixed, but they won't come until I'm done with other things, so, in the meantime:

In /mnt/us/python/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/models.py around L392 (basically just above the offending unicode_is_ascii call), insert:

        if is_py2:
            host = unicode(host)

Honoring the whitespace *exactly* (this is Python, indent > everything, as it should!).

On Windows, that /mnt/us/ is just the drive letter for your Kindle (e.g. F:\ ). Also, probably best to move further discussion to the LibrarianSync thread.
