Thanks, Rob. I went over & took a look. It all looks like gibberish to me, so it appears that to use the tools there, I have a learning curve to climb.
The tools would be useful to me if what I wanted to do was convert books from lrf to azw. But my objective is just to convert articles I find while browsing the internet. Since I browse with Firefox, I can always do a "save as PDF" to get something I can load into calibre and convert. So I have a workaround, in several steps, that doesn't require me to get involved with such tools. I also have the option of using Instapaper, and getting the text on my iphone.
Basically, I've been seduced by the ease of using Bookit and calibre when I was using a 505, and just hoping for the same ease of use now that I'm on a Kindle. If Bookit would output a pdf instead of an lrf, or calibre convert lrf, it would get me where I'd like to be, which is to be able to snag articles while browsing & send them right to calibre, where they will be waiting for me to load them on my K2.
