I can download a book to my pc and Mobipocket sees the file and displays the title but I get an error message. Same message I get when I downloaded DRMed Mobi books before I registered my Mobipocket on my PC's PID.
My Kindle has been picked up from Amazon's warehouse in Lexington Kentucky. |

And renaming it from .AZW to .PRC doesn't make a difference.
It's the DRM. |

"The retailer AMAZON_1110 of the eBook <book name> has not been found in the list of Mobipocket partners."[...] So it looks like they need only the will to make this happen at some point. I'm sure the content is non-trivially encrypted. Z. |

Hmm that's interesting. It seems they use basically the same DRM scheme, just a different PID generation. I will need to look into it...

This thread also has probably out-lived it's stickiness.
