Especially since we're basically talking about two screen sizes, right? The DX and everything else. This strikes me as being pretty easy to optimize for.


Though you do still have the "what about big charts and pictures" issue, I suppose, and conversion does get a little more complicated if you're thinking about optimizing for every device that can run a Kindle app--but most of those are LCD screens, and options like zooming and panning work better on them anyway.

Anyway, I'll be interested to see how this works--when the Mac version comes out, if it does.
