See Mobipocket Decoder Tool. You may also need kindlepid.py (Amazon Kindle Hack: Read DRM-protected Mobipocket content!) to find your PID. Note that this works on AZW files, but not all Kindle ebooks are in this format.

Yep. It doesn't work on .tpz books. So far out of the dozen or so books I've bought, only one is .tpz. I don't know if that's typical or if they're going to start doing more .tpz now, though.

TPZ is also known as Topaz. It's the new DRM format. Most of the Kindle exclusive ebooks are in this format.

The problem I have with the Topaz format is that it makes page re-draws very slow. I hope this can be solved with firmware, but if it can't, and Amazon makes Topaz the default, I'm going to be a lot less happy with my Kindle.
