re-registering & Kindle content

Hello,

I am not currently using Caliber but am hopeful that it may assist me with a problem. I have a 1st generation Kindle that was a gift from a family member with whom I have been sharing a "kindle account" at Amazon. I find myself wanting to leave the family group (our reading interests don't really overlap and I would actually prefer some privacy) and have established my own Kindle content account that I use with my netbook. I have not registered my Kindle to this new account as yet because I do not want to lose the ebooks I have already purchased.

Would Caliber allow me to download my existing Kindle files from the group account and then follow me through re-registration to my new Amazon account while retaining my past purchases? I do have the books I want saved to a SD card and am hoping I will be able to access these files after the switch (as long as Whispernet is turned off on the device) but am reluctant to make a jump without more information. I would really prefer an alternative to this "plan" as I don't want the risk of losing my files. To date, I have made a considerable investment in content so any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Is there hope that Caliber might offer a solution?

Many thanks in advance.
