Reading Classic Literature

I read classic literature occasionally but I am thinking of starting devoting a lot of my reading time on classics. Anyone else? And if you are a Kindle reader,
Is there a particular type of publisher of these books you prefer? I know there are some really cheap versions of 19th century literature but they seem to have been adapted to the e-reader format by an electronic mechanism that makes a lot of typos. They are already so cheap that even if I get the e-book from a name brand publisher I don’t mind spending a couple of extra dollars to have something nicely formatted.

I downloaded Madame Bovary by Flaubert to start this classics binge with and I plan on moving on to some Trollope. I might intersperse it with relatively light contemporary novels.

Thanks!
