Can you read your home-brewed mobi files on Kindle Reader for Mac? If so, how? And how does the Mac experience compare with the Kindle for iPad experience?
Some background: I'm someone tasked with converting books to ePub and Kindle for a small press. So I'm familiar with almost everything involved, including Calibre (though 'familiar with' does not necessarily mean 'proficient at').
I'm doing some conversion work freelance now, and I'm up against a problem. My client will likely view their eBook using Kindle Reader on an iPad, and I don't have one. I figured that reading the Mobi version on Kindle for Mac would give me a similar experience, and I hoped that the ePub to Calibre to Kindle Reader for Mac conversion route would be as straightforward as ePub to Calibre to Kindle. But I don't see any obvious way of making it happen, and quick Google searches haven't yielded any help. (Setting it up for them to preview before we go live on the Kindle store is going to be another headache, and any suggestions there will be appreciated!)
Thanks for your time - I've been lurking here for a while, and it's helped a lot with my conversion duties.
