Ummm... It didn't ask me for a Kindle ID for my 'puter. It just installed and told me I had nine Kindle ebooks that I'd already purchased in my Archives and let me transfer them to Home. Once in Home, (Under Windows Vista Home Premium, Core2Quad system) it opened both the .azw and the .tpz (I think they're called .azw1 now) ebooks without any problem and - unlike on my iPod Touch - the .tpz ebooks opened and paged through quite rapidly!

I'd rather be able to read my .tpz ebooks on my iPod or even my Cybook Gen3, but I can live with the PC for those few I purchase. The .azw ebooks I can read on my iPod until my Kindle 2 gets here from repair.
