It does depend on the publisher, but The Host by Stephenie Meyers was published on May 6 in both hardcover and on the Kindle. It still isn't out in paperback. So I think Breaking Dawn may be available for the Kindle on August 2nd.

Under Kindle Books (Browse by Publication Date) some Kindle ebooks are listed as "Available for Pre-order", but the ones I tried can't actually be purchased. There are a couple listed as "Available for Pre-order. This item will be released on Jul 1, 2008." which appear to already be available.
