Although it is unintuitive, a sample will have DRM if the book itself does.

A pretty name.

(B) Collections in the cloud - are you saying the Kindle reading app on my (iphone,iPad) could start putting things into "cloud" collections now? Even though my K4 apparently doesn't see the "cloud" the same way (or, as in (A) is it a wholly different cloud?) -unclear on the concept!

Yes, the apps are updated with Cloud Collections and the K4 is not.

(C) can the Kindle Cloud reader on my Mac do the same collection building? Keypad and mouse might be even easier....

Kindle for Mac -- I don't think the desktop apps were updated with Cloud Collections (I could be wrong.)
