Post Amazon Kindle Purchase to Calibre Help

Hi guys. I'm pretty new here. I have an older Augen ebook reader and like it fine. I actually don't do a lot of ebook reading but am getting used to it. I really prefer a nice 'book', but there are new and exciting titles only available with ebooks; many are free too!

My dilemma is that I have been using Calibre and love it for most things. I have purchased just a few Kindle titles but can't really access them. I can read them on my Kindle app on my cell phone but that basically sucks. I can open and see the ebook on my phone and can read it online, but I want to be able to transfer it to my Augen via Calibre (I know there is a conversion tool).

For some reason, I cannot find the file on my cell phone (I have it connected via USB and it's a new Samsung Galaxy S3). It isn't in the Kindle directory.

Anyone else have this issue? I really hate the Kindle closed format and probably will never buy there again, but I've got a couple of items in the library I'd love to extract.

Your help is appreciated!

Sincerely,

Skip Stein
