I bought a book from Baen's WebSubscription, and noticed it had an option to "e-mail to my Kindle". I am still trying out various reader apps and downloaded the .mobi to be read from my desktop computer's Kindle application - but it didn't show up on my iPad, so I wondered if that was necessary to see it both places (A book I bought from Amazon showed up automatically).

Apparently Amazon charges (see below). What do I get from this? Can I move any book so that any Kindle device/program sees it?

Amazon will charge you $.15 per MB sent by email to your Kindle. Before you can email items to your Kindle you must authorize access by WebScription.net. Login in to your Amazon Kindle account at

Amazon Kindle Manager

and in the
"Your Kindle approved e-mail list"
add the address

@webscription.net

You only need to do this once.

Then enter the address for your Kindle device here and click "Send"
