It doesn't make sense to me why you would get a different result unless you enter a different input.

Lee's online tool keeps giving me different PIDs everytime I use it; non of which work to convert .PRC books to Kindle's format. I must have one of those Kindles with the PID associated with the book purchased instead of with the Kindle itself. I have heard of purchasing a book, then going into Kindle for PC and looking at the data then grabbing the PID. Do you know if this works? Thanks for your work in this area!! I agree completely with your philosophy! My Kindle was purchased in May of 2010.

It's a Kindle 1. The screen is unfortunately shot, so I can't check the settings, but I can see it on the back cover.

I am hoping you can help me understand what my serial number is. It is on a Kindle 2 that was bought in the United States in approximatly Sept. or Oct. of 2009. The serial number is B003A0A094160289, here I used all zero's to give you the serial number, but any or all of them may be wrong. I have looked at the '411' screen of "settings" and at the printing on the back of the Kindle below the logos and the model number. The model number by the way says "D00701" Pete I am also having a difficulty getting kindlepid.py to give me a PID and it may be because of the zero’s or capital “o”‘s in my serial number.
