This. What I'm looking for is the sorta reverse - any book that becomes available for Kindle (that needs a K for whatever app) would also automatically become available in the other formats. If that is true, then there is no longer a division between books available for epub and books available for mobi and books available for kindle.

But it's really exciting for my sister-in-law who got a kindle for christmas....
