Hmmm ... I'll try again tonight, Igorsk, and leave it connected to see what happens. It'll be interesting to see if the AC charger solves the problem, though. If so, I'll certainly post the result -- if not, I'll post that, too.
I'll go into *Reading Recommendations* now, too, and post the URL for our own wee house.
Thing is with ebooks, that they cost so little to produce and zero to distribute because all the hard and expensive work -- editorial, design, technical, promo, what have you -- has gone into the paperback.
From our own site, we offer them at a nominal £1 ($2), but they go at full price on secondary retail sites like Amazon, etc. etc. Being ebook believers for ten years now, though, we're always happy to give them away free to anyone breaking into e-reading; especially folks who discuss ebooks as a community.
We (and our authors) see freeebooks as promoting our own titles and authors, handy (and cheap to distribute) for reviewers who are becoming more and more inclined to read digital versions ... and encouraging ebook reading in general.
Cheers. Neil
