Exporting books from Amazon to Calibre / non Kindle devices/PC

I have some books in my Amazon account that I would like to read on something else besides the default Kindle Cloud Reader.

Manage Your Content and Devicesm -> Your Devices
only shows Begemot's Kindle Cloud Reader

Manage Your Content and Devices -> Your Content -> select book -> Actions -> in Download & transfer via USB

"You have selected content that is not compatible with any of your registered devices. Please remove incompatible content from selection for eligible devices to appear."

So I need to add another device,

I have:
  • Ipad Air
  • Kobo H20
  • Sony DPT-S1 (my favorite, but I know I will need to convert to pdf first)
  • Kobo Mini
  • iRiver HD
  • Kindle DX (flashed via serial port, unregistered store Demo version)
  • Nook HD somewhere under cushions

What are my options?

Worst case I have to buy the cheapest Kindle I can find and register it?
Then transfer those books from the Kindle into Calibre?
