Hi sailors,
I’m trying to get into the habit of reading but books are often expensive. However I don’t particularly like reading on my phone screen since I’ll get distracted.
Kindle seems to me a perfect fit. It’s tech enough that I find it interesting. Not too expensive. Gorgeous paper white display.
So, essentially what I want to know is which kindle is best for cracking/exploit/mod and overall just your opinion on it.
Edit: I didn’t expect so many people to reply! Thanks everyone!
Also I don’t remember writing half of the things on this post? Might just install a monoxide detector… If some admin edited it, thanks. It’s a lot clearer now, probably why it got so much traction.
When you buy a Kindle you get an email address for it (find it in your Amazon account in the device information section). You can add that email address to Calibre and just email the pirated books to it. It will auto-convert to the appropriate format (though they keep on sending me an email saying this is going away) and keep it in your Amazon cloud library. That way the books don’t have to stay on the device and you can download them to any Kindle you own in the future or anywhere you have the Kindle app installed.
It used to be that kindle supported mobi not epub, now they are transitioning to support epub not mobi. This makes it even easier since most ebooks are epub, so now there’s no need to convert in Calibre.
Do you know if there’s a way to auto mail them as soon as they’re added to calibre? Does it work with kobo?
There’s a checkmark option next to your email account to auto-send when a book is added. As for Kobo, I don’t have any experience with those devices.
Ok, that’s fantastic, can finally automate adding books to my parents ebook! Cheers
Whoa, I never thought about combining Calibre with the email functionality. Didn’t even know that was possible. Now if only Calibre had a mobile version I wouldn’t even need to open the laptop.
