Thanks!
Generally speaking, the best place to purchase (IMHO) is the webscriptions.com web site. If its a book they carry buy it there before you buy it on Amazon. Webscriptions contains sf/fantasy books mostly from Baen -- also a few smaller publishers.

The webscriptions advantages:
- No DRM - you can read it on your Kindle, PC, smartphone, ... and a few years from now when you replace your Kindle it'll still work.

- Usually cheaper (A few titles, such as Weber's Tor books may cost a bit more, but 99% of the books are definitely cheaper)

- Earlier access: Most books are available two weeks to three months before they are broadly released.

Besides, the folks at Baen are good folks generally and specifically from an ebook perspective and I like to reward their positive behavior.
