Also they are split into multiple files instead of one. For the older formats, the DRM for eink Kindles has not been updated or changed since they have been introduced.
Couldn't one get around this by having it "Delivered to computer" for later delivery via USB? I just did that for my Voyage which apparently handles KFX, and the file offered for download was an AZW3.
