Can I take ebooks from an HD Kindle Fire to the Nexus 7?

[mrrman]

I gave my wife an HD Kindlle Fire for Christmas and now I am planning on getting her the Nexus 7 ( I have one myself) and giving the HD Kindle to my mom. Can I transfer the ebooks from the Kindle Fire to the Nexus. If I have to convert book files, I have Calibre. Thanks

Were they bought from Amazon? If so, just download the kindle app on the nexus 7 and it will automatically sync.

There is a Kindle app in Google Play you can install on the Nexus 7. So when you sync up almost all your books will show up there, assuming you bought them from Amazon.

The only exception is you can't borrow books from the Amazon Lending Library on anything other then a Kindle or Kindle Fire.

The books are kept in "the cloud". All she would need to do is install the app.

Even if they weren't purchased from Amazon, you can use their Send to Kindle application to archive docs, books, or whatever other compatible formats to the cloud to share and sync across devices.
