You may notice that there are Amazon books exist in most eReaders, but most people think that these books only can be playable on Kindle devices. What a pity that you have kept your Kindle books in your library for a long time. Here is a guide showing you how to read Kindle books on BlackBerry PlayBook. If you want to read eBooks purchased or downloaded from Amazon on BlackBerry PlayBook, there are two ways to achieve this goal.
Tips: Actually you can also read Kindle books on other devices, not only BlackBerry. There is another tutorial on how to read Kindle book on Kobo Vox.
Method One: Convert Kindle MOBI to ePub for BlackBerry
Step 1: Remove DRM Protection from Kindle Books
If your Kindle books are protected by DRM, you should use Kindle DRM Removal to remove Kindle DRM protection first. No matter what the format of your Kindle books, AZW or MOBI, the DRM removal program will save them as MOBI format automatically.
Step 2: Convert DRM-free Kindle MOBI Books to ePub
BlackBerry PlayBook doesn't support AZW or MOBI format. That's why you need to convert Kindle books to BlackBerry compatible format, ePub. We recommend you to use MOBI to ePub Converter which is specially designed for converting MOBI to ePub format to make the Kindle books readable on any ePub supported devices, like Nook, iPad, Sony Reader and more.
After the easy conversion process showing on the above picture, you can connect your BlackBerry PlayBook to the computer, copy and paste the converted ePub books to it and then you can enjoy them on your device fully!
If you are using a Mac, please go to see MOBI to ePub for Mac.
Method Two: Install Kindle App for BlackBerry PlayBook
Amazon has its own Kindle app family for all the popular platforms, including BlackBerry. Just install Kindle for BlackBerry App on your playbook and then you can search, download and purchase books from 1 million eBook resources on your BlackBerry PlayBook via this app. Go to the page of Free Kindle Reading Apps, click "BlackBerry" under the category of "Smartphones" and then visit amazon.com/kindlebb in your BlackBerry browser to download.
