It's easiest to do this with your computer and then go ahead and add some ebooks to your bookshelf. Once you're setup and ready to read, launch the Kindle's web browser, go to the Ibis Reader website, login to your account, and choose one of your ebooks.
You can adjust the settings to increase the font size and fit the text layout to the screen by hitting "no distractions". The page-turn buttons advance the page. It does take some time getting used to but works fairly well. It looks a little something like this…
Conclusion:
The first method allows you to read ePub on Kindle wherever you go, whenever you want, after converting ePub to Kindle. The second method only allows you to read ePub on Kindle with Internet connection. That is to say, without Internet connection, you can't read ePub on Kindle with Way 2.
