By the way, I use Python26 with the MobiDeDRM.V0.02 script (or the V0.01) to De-DRM Mobipockets.
The latest mobidedrm script is v0.12 (or v0.13), so you may want to upgrade. This version can be added as a plugin to Calibre, which removes one step from the conversion of MOBI to ePub.

For Kindle for PC, Amazon changed the DRM scheme - so mobidedrm on its own does not work. Instead you use unswindle.pyw, which is easier to use than mobidedrm, but has to be applied separately from Calibre.
