I'm completely sure Kindle Intl does not read epub.
Which would seem to be the standard understanding. I was surprised when the kindle store listed a book in epub format ( http://www.amazon.com/Twilight-epub/...7331455&sr=1-1 ) and that is why I decided to experiment. The file I transferred is on my PC at work, so can't check it now, will have to wait until tomorrow. There is only a mobi version showing on my kindle when I check the document folder. Very odd, will delete mobi version and repeat experiment tomorrow and see what occurs and report back.
