Amazing. That's exactly the visual confirmation I was looking for!

Regarding formatting: It's not that much of a problem. Like I said, the source files are some Tex flavor with very little special typesetting features. We can relatively easily re-render and encrypt all PDFs again for different sizes and page formats. I realize it's much less optimized compared to true ebook formats where you can dynamically scale/change the fonts and margins on the device itself, but that's OK.

I initially preferred Kobo for their waterproof casings on the higher end models, but after watching a bunch of reviews, and PDF performance does really seem to be best on Kindle devices (even if it's not perfect).
