I use Linux also, but I've never installed Kindle for PC (and I don't like Wine) — I had a Kindle before I heard about Calibre. If you live in the U.S. you should be able to buy a working Kindle for about $20 (shipped) on www.ShopGoodwill.com. Here's one currently on ShopGoodwill for $10 plus about $10 shipping and handling (depending on where you live). All you have to do is be able to register the Kindle on your Amazon account.

There's actually a whole lot of them with starting bids of $9.99 that no one has bid on.

This is the easy option in my opinion.
