I am somewhat bemused.. Amazon chose NOT to offer a Secure Mobipocket option on Android and now wants to introduce an android device.

I understand the economics and why Amazon has all but killed the non-Kindle versions of Secure Mobi but I STILL have 500 books in the format that I have to use a third party reader for.

If they want me to buy a reader from them then they can allow me to import my mobi library to the kindle. It was bad enough that they decided not to support android when they weren't offering one.

I will stick to my Xoom, which already has 4 different readers for different formats. I keep hoping they offer a conversion service someday, but I suspect the legal issues are more than they want to overcome.

At least I was able to convert all my old Microsoft Reader docs.
