How to read amazon samples without a Kindle?
As I understand it, it is possible to download and read samples from ebooks from Amazon. I would like to do this, but I don't have a Kindle. Other than buying a Kindle, how can I do this? I have a PC and a couple of e-readers, and I am willing to read the samples on either.

Kindle for PC software, Amazon Cloud Reader perhaps?

You can read the sample from the book's page by clicking on the cover. There's no need to download it. I do this as I never download samples unless I am trying to figure out if the book is Topaz.
