And I know a number of people elsewhere have also sent messages to them (myself included) with no reply. Basically, I think the reasoning is that they could give a shit about eBooks and by raising the price, they can drive us away and when they don't sell, they can justify dropping them. They already seem to have dropped MS Reader as one of their eBook format.

I still think someone new took over their ebook department or something. It's just such a 180 from the way they used to be.

I too have tried contacting them with no luck. I used to get a response within a day or two from them, now nothing.
