just got off the phone with amazon kindle support about this. i found more two more errors at locations 457-464, and i've concluded that the problem is probably pervasive throughout the book. it seems that any time a word appears that contain an accented vowel, the text loses between 18 and 20 of the following characters.
the kindle support person was very nice and looked at the examples i pointed out to her. she speculated that amazon will probably pull the book and have the publisher run through it and try to get it corrected.
i asked how it will work for people who have already bought the book: will they be notified? or will amazon simply automatically push another copy to the kindle? well, neither of these options unfortunately. anyone who wants a corrected copy will have to apply for a refund and then repurchase the corrected copy when it becomes available. that's unfortunate. an automatic push seems like a good idea to me.
