Anyway, since you'd still need to connect your Kindle to a PC, I don't really see the value of this solution: probably easier to just sideloads the books.
Hey and thanks for replying. I was aware of this solution, having used it until it stopped working.
The benefit of send-to-Kindle vs sideloading for me is that I can read those books not only on my Kindle but also my iPad or my phone and that notes and highlights are stored and synced on all my devices...
