It's not exactly a conversion, but there is a way to display Eyrie works on a Kindle without too much hassle.

What you do is this: Go into the Options menu, and click Screen Rotation. Change it to one of the sideways options (I opt for the one with the buttons to the right, but I'm right handed). Open a text file (I used the first part of Symphony 1), open the Options menu again, and click Change Font Size (you can also change screen rotation in this menu, if you haven't already).

Now, you have a couple options. You can go to the third font size on the left and the Condensed typeface, the second size with the Regular typeface, or Sans-Serif with size 3. I have yet to read through a full Eyrie piece with any of these settings, but they seem to display correctly at the moment. You may encounter a broken line or two.

As for modifying the files so they can be read 'normally', the only thing you have to do is remove the line breaks; your Kindle will take care of the rest. Slightly tedious, but not impossible.
