Do you really think there's been a malicious link posted to this thread the whole time and no one has said anything?

Bit.ly is great for aggregating traffic information. Add a + to the end of the link if you're paranoid.

I have, with mixed results. Some items I am able to view as they were originally formatted in pdf. Some not.

I successfuly installed savory .. it shows in version note .. but nothing happened .. i added a pdf file into my document fold and its just like if its no there .. any help?

I've found that Savory takes its time to get started on a new pdf that is added. It seems like it has to go into standby mode first, but I can't swear that is correct. Once conversion starts it will take a few minutes, but from what I've seen Savory does work pretty well.

I've used the 0.06 unsupported version of savory, and it works just fine for me. My Kindle software version is 2.0.2. I have read a couple of comment posts that 2.0.3 breaks savory. I'm personally interested in finding out if it does work in 2.0.3.

Noobie question, but how are youall running apps on the Kindle? Accessing the app from a mounted Kindle thru your USB-connected computer? Or is there a way to access executables that are outside of the default documents directory on the K2 which displays the K2's contents?

thx!

Savory is, as far as I know, the ONLY Kindle app. It has to be installed on your Kindle. Read about it here.
