Thanks for that. Can you confirm (or deny) that MOBI7 is what kindle used in medieval times, KF8/AZW3 is the last format used, KCR/AZK the one that introduced the switch from pure Mobi, and KFX is the Wall they're building? That would make sense to me as someone who's relatively new to kindling things.
Yes, I've read somewhere that (paraphrased) "If you're trying to do something fancy on a Kindle, don't". I'm close to agreeing.
And I fully understand that KFX is a one-way format (mostly anyway) and that "Enhanced Typesetting" is probably no more than a justification for switching to it.
What I don't know is: do old devices, like the Voyage or DX, get ET in line with newer ones or are they stuck at whatever capability and bugginess they are at now?
At the moment I'm thinking of getting a used Voyage. Any particular System Revision I should look out for if I want the device to match a large number of its siblings?
thanks
