Oh oh, the Whispersync software is for Windows only.  Sigh...

It will work in Wine but you need the older version of the installer.

A rar is available here:- http://ifile.it/tq05bk4

Before you install to make it work run winecfg from a terminal and add the application KindleForPc.exe click open and then make sure its set to run as a win98 app.

Now go to where ever you extracted the installer and run it...

Without setting it to run as a win98 app you wont be able to see the login screen. Enter your amazon name and password and you should be good to go....


Cheers,

Hopefully this will spawn a price war and we can have full bnlown computers and not crippled ones as readers
