How to get back E-issues of Asimov etc.?

Hey,

I've been sampling some e-zines trying to decide on which to subscribe to. (liking the Asimoc and Analog at the moment). While I know how to subscribe to and how to get the current single issues, I can't figure out how to buy the back issues. I have looked at Amazon (using a Kindle 3 currently) and briefly at the Dell Magazine site but no love. Is this possible, and if so how?

Thanks in advance!

Fictionwise have Asimov/Analog etc backissues. You buy them in "Multiformat" option, and then you can choose to download them in the Kindle/Mobi format and transfer them to your Kindle via USB (or I think you can email them to yourself too)

Enjoy!

Thanks!

I knew that Fictionwise had subscriptions to the e-zines...I guess I should have researched them first. As an Ebookwise owner I used to shop there all the time...more sporadic now since I got the Kindle (yes, I have fallen to the evil of Kindle, and I like it...but I still like my ebookwise, especially when the power goes out!)

I guess my next question (which is probably more for the Kindle column) Is why can't I put the e-zines into collections on the Kindle 3? Is it some weird metadata thing, or am I missing something? (have successfully created many collections for e-books already...e-zines just don't "show up" when adding to collections).

Thanks again!
