We have temporarily removed all Mobipocket PX books from sale while we sort through problems created by one of the publishers that pulled all of its titles from the US distributors, including Mobipocket PX, without notice over the weekend.
Mobipocket.com (our Mobipocket PX format) is generating an error message for those titles. That message is confusing to our customers and we chose to shut off Mobipocket PX sales until we can understand what's happening, and how to adjust it. This was done in order to protect our customers from paying for product that they may not receive.
The precipitous action of the large publisher in question has created a difficult situation for Mobipocket and for US resellers in general. We are proceeding very cautiously with the first priority being to protect the investment in ebooks of our existing customers. We are hopeful that this situation will be entirely resolved quickly.
Sincere regards,
Kurt Johnson
