I just received an e-ink Kindle Paperwhite Generation 7. The USB download behaves the same way on the e-ink as it did on the fire. The book is loaded, but DRM is still embedded so you are unable to convert it to any other format.

As I said before, I do not believe that so-called "Option 3" works reliably anymore.

The book I am testing with is:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...w_myk_ro_title

If I knew what criteria makes a book incompatible with Calibre then I could still buy books in an emergency, but for now I can't depend on being able to load a purchase into Calibre.

Calibre and all the usual plugins are up to the latest version no.
