dont worry so much about converting, It only takes 3 seconds for a stupid recode, and 5-15 minutes to get some nice formatting in. considering it takes hours to read a book, converting is nothing. Its not like video which takes hours to convert for fractional enjoyment.
Thanks, Andy. I have to wait two weeks anyway before I have the money to order anything, and I'm as interested in Amazon's announcement as everyone else around here. However, I'd pretty much ruled out the Kindle as my first E-ink device due to the conversion conundrum. I don't know what a "stupid recode" is, nor do I have any clue how to reformat once it's converted. I've tried reading the threads here about Mobipocket and Book Creator and to be honest, I'm getting more confused than enlightened. That may have something to do with the cold I'm fighting, however, as I'm usually pretty quick with that kind of thing.
