I just ordered a Kindle Paperwhite (8 GB) with the 6.8" display. It would be an upgrade from my Kindle Keyboard 3G. Most important for me is the bigger screen size and the higher resulution.

Now I wonder: With the new device, will I still be able to download books from the Kindle and convert them to other formats using Calibre?

If not, I would rather keep my Kindle 3G and not go through with the upgrade. The reason is that eventually, once price drops, I plan to buy a Remarkable 2, to read and annotate books purchased via the Kindle. They need to be converted to PDF then.
