Alan, yes I did buy it at Kobobooks. The formating was basically okay and readable but not without glitches. The right-justification sometimes resulted in enormous spaces between words (like, 12-15 spaces) and sometimes there was no space between paragraphs. Also, I like chapters to start on new pages and they didn't, so sometimes I'd see a numeral at the bottom of the page and the chapter would start after the page turn.
Overall, though, it was basically fine and certainly better formatted than the ebook I bought from Simon and Schuster for $12.99.
It was a fun read, too!
Pricing is a real problem at this stage. I could hardly say that I'm in it for the money, but I don't want to sell my book too cheaply, either. I offered it for 75% off this past weekend and had a few takers, but the difference in sales wasn't huge. I think I need to give it some time at $4.95 to see what happens. Kobobooks discounts it to $3.89 anyway.
