I think it's very difficult to read from the Kindle. I surfed the site from my netbook and sent the books to the Kindle from there.

Lois McMaster Bujold is probably my very favorite author. Love her stuff.

I'd been buying Baen ebooks for several years in html format and reading them on a PC. When the Kindle 2 came out I realized I could read all my previous purchases plus all of their free library!

I bought my first Kindle because of Baen Books.

Browsing isn't great (but then browsing on Webscription isn't overly great to begin with), but it's doable. Shopping for a specific book wouldn't be bad at all, but just browsing through things wouldn't be very fun IMO. The big problem is I can't login to my account using the K3's browser. I get a message "Your Kindle is unable to load the requested page" when trying to submit my username/password info.

Below is a screenshot of the main page from the K3.

Mine too. I can't wait for the new Miles V book (soon, soon).
