Edited...


I haven't really investigated to verify what is happening, but I downloaded a couple of books for transfer by USB after specifying my Oasis-3. DDRMing with Apprentice Alf and Calibre failed, but when I re-downloaded for my PaperWhite-2 the plugin worked fine. So it looks like Amazon does send KFX files for transfer to the Oasis-3 by USB.

Now I always make sure to specify the PW-2 and haven't had any more problems.


In a post below ilovejedd reminded me the Oasis-3 has to be added to DeDRM before conversion can happen. I thought I had done that, but it wasn't there. Adding it solved the problem and now download for transfer by USB works for the Oasis-3.
