I just noticed, that Amazon has the Lonely Planet country guides in AZW format.

I was just about to purchase one, but luckily, downloaded a sample, and even though it says AWZ, I couldn't remove the DRM from the sample. So, unless I am doing something wrong, these seem to be Topaz files.

Which means, I will not go near them (I actually have a couple of p-guides for the destination I am going to, and the PDF versions can be purchased from LP (and many are available elsewhere, including on darknet.) But since the Kindle sucks at PDF, I am not buying these, either.

Anyone knows if LP country guides are available elsewhere, as mobi, or EPUB?
