Thanks for your comments. So basically, there is no way to download anything except samples without paying a fee. I am fine with managing it off the mac, but I had hoped I could at least get the Fictionwise content I already own
I do a lot of reading but I am interested in upgrading from my Sony reader because I want the dictionary, the Wikipedia and the text to speech options. Also I am interested in the idea that I can read on the Kindle and on the ipod and it will remember my place.
