I thought for a moment that this might mean that finally kindle pdocs could be sent to Kindle For Mac/PC - but no, it doesn't seem to.

You can download AZW file and open it with Kindle for Mac/PC. Syncing the furthest page read works but it is considered as different book. I think, that Kindle for Mac/PC treats the book as EBOK instead of PDOC.

Does this mean that all my azw3 files that i sideloaded via calibre will end up in the cloud the next time i switch off the airplane mode on my kindle? or only those that i send via "sendtomykindle@kindle.com"?
This whole cloud shananigans are making me kinda paranoid... |

You will see only azw/azw3 files sent before via sendtomykindle@kindle.com and available currently on Manage Your Kindle site: http://amazon.com/myk

Thanks!
I am not a big admirer of clouds, I'm afraid. I don't mind the ones made from hydrogen, though. |

You beat me to it - I got the same email about an hour ago
![]() This is excellent news because it means that we can finally send KF8 files as personal docs. |

As I wrote in other thread you could send KF8 files before as well in a dual/hybrid mobi file (mobi6+KF8). Also notice: You still have to upload file with Send to Kindle if you want to deliver files to Kindle devices. Uploaded files via Amazon Cloud are not visible on amazon.com/myk site.

I'm not sure I understand. I'm a little foggy on the whole Cloud Drive thing. It's completely different from the Kindle Library, correct? Last I heard, the Cloud Drive was not accessible from e-ink Kindles, only Kindle Fires? So does that mean this new Cloud Drive update really only affects Kindle Fire owners?

I found out that deleting a file from Cloud Drive also deletes them from MYK. |

The files stored in Cloud and in MYK are the same in different view, so if you delete file from Cloud it will be deleted from MYK and vice versa. Managing files from Cloud will be handy if you want bulk operation, for example delete multiple files. Also notice, Cloud has a Trash, so you can recover accidentally deleted file.

Can anyone see their documents in the Cloud Drive app on their phone? I'm using the app on iOS 7. I see that I now have 10gb of storage, but can only see my photos and videos. I have to go to the web version in order to see my documents.
