I could just see them negotiating for the rights to sell a special Kindle edition (Red with the Gryffindor Lion or Green with the Slytherin Snake) with all 7 books plus the 3 charity titles pre-loaded-- with some percentage of proceeds to go to charity. Rowling was quite keen to endorse the "Ancient Forest Friendly" recycled books I bought from Canada. If someone could convince her that the Kindle is the right platform, pointing to Goodkind as an example, perhaps, it would be quite a coup for Amazon.

So I guess we have to count ourselves lucky that JK is British and that the Kindle isn't available in the UK (and in 85% of the rest of the world)... So that won't happen, just like all actors in the Harry Potter movies were British and not American .......
Wake up, 95% of the world population has NO access to a Kindle and therefore alone this is a very bad deal
