I love the idea of a 10 inch eReader with 300DPI and warm light capability. Since I prefer the Kobo software to that of the Kindle I wanted to go that route. Unfortunately they're stuck at 227 DPI on their Elipsa and will be that way for the indeterminate future. This makes the Scribe look very attractive.

I've got tons of epubs I read on my current Kobo and would like to convert them and sideload them onto the Kindle. I doubt that I'll need anything from Amazon other than the reader itself.

Is it possible to use a Kindle Scribe without activating it with Amazon or do I have to connect it to an Amazon account?
