It's my first pol-script, but it seems to get Kindle going, although it's a bit of an outdated version of Amazons Software.
Wine version: 1.2
Distribution: Ubuntu
Distribution version: 10.10 (Maverick)
Graphics card: ATI, Radeon 4800
Graphics card driver: fglrx
Comments: Everything works great
Code:

Looks great, but when I copy it (cut & paste) as a .pol file and try to run it with POL, I get an error that it is not a valid POL file.
