Feedback is good.

As a computer specialist, I'm sitting here thinking that it would be an interesting exercise to design the code that would set the last page read location in a newly purchased book. I think it might be easier if you buy using the link in the back of the sample. If you buy from the books description page -- whether through the web page or through the Kindle Store application in the Kindle -- it might be too much computation to review your history to determine whether you downloaded a sample at some time in the past.

And, consider the situation where although you downloaded the sample, you didn't actually read it but went back and bought the book any way. In this case, the last-read page isn't pertinent.

Yeah -- write to Amazon. They can solve the problem faster than I can, but I am having fun thinking about the possibilities.
