Other reasons why a book might not download with the older Kindle for PC version includes content that requires KFX format (such as certain languages) or a requirement from the publisher for unbroken DRM. Neither appears to apply for this book.

The report was that version 2.3 "would not download the new book either", not that the resulting book could not be imported into calibre. Something more fundamental appears to be going wrong, perhaps an incompatibility between the new Kindle for PC and their older laptop.
