Thanks for this helpful file -- don't worry about running on -- content is the key here. I've had my Kindle since Dec. 4th, and with my 8 GB memory card, I already have over 500 books stored, most from free sources. But I want to be able to edit them, have better names and authors, and hopefully categorize them which Kindle doesn't support (yet). I've discovered that we badly need format conversion programs allowing much default definitions to make things the way "you" want them. And Gutenbert is a great source if we can make them look better on a Kindle -- and you've helped a lot. But we really need much much more available. Amazon just isn't about to help either due to their hang-up on DRM which was obviously forced on them by publishers, since they fight DRM for music.
