I hear you about Kobo. If you are otherwise content with the Kindle platform, why not just keep a very old Kindle 3 or Touch registered on your account? You should be able to get these for very little money and you can use these to either download books to there and copy them to Calibre or to make sure that you will get the KF8 format delivered when downloading books from your user account. I think it should be a while until Amazon completely stops supporting these and the method ceasing to work is as likely as Kobo introducing some new and uncracked version of DRM onto their devices.
