Some math and statistics professors already offer their own books they wrote from years of teaching, so its readily available for free and legal as well. This would be the only aspect of kindle I would endorse here. The other route would have to be Dover publications for their years of making past text books accessible for less than 20 U.S. dollars in paperback form. Now if they can get on board the kindle might be worth it, but so far I don't like the kindle, it has no functionality with the text, I can't highlight or write on the pages like I can with a real book.
