With the hardware I have, can I convert my Kindle ebooks into ePub? Can Calibre do the job?
Calibre under Linux can do the job. Use the installer from Kovid's site at Download for Linux to avoid pain. All too many Linux distributions have munged calibre installers.

To get the books into calibre from Amazon, the easiest way would be to download them for USB using the Download and Transfer for USB option.

And check out Apprentice Alf/Apprentice Harper for your DRM removal needs.
