Amazon kindle is just as stupid as an apple ipad. people buy it just for the name and spend hundred sof bucks for it. who the hell needs wifi and a special store to buy books. i just need a drag and drop usb connection to read txt and html files.
there are thousands of free ebooks online from amatures and pro authors in those formats. only idiots spend money on fiction
mine costs 68 bucks from newegg on sale free shipping no sales tax . regular retail price is 150 bucks.
and mine uses replaceable rechargeable AA batteries so i dont have to worry about the stupid built in rechargeable batteries dying and making the ereader useless like what happens on mp3...

I need somebody with Kindle to check formatting

I'm helping a friend format a book for free online distribution.
(The paperback version sells at Amazon for $20 but he's giving away the eBook to build some buzz for his next book.)
Anyway, I don't have a Kindle, so I downloaded the eBook after posting it, and I am viewing it in the "Kindle for PC" reader program.
There is a ONE SPACE indent at the start of every paragraph. This extra indent doesn't show up in the PDF or other formats.
The eBook distributor says its a bug in "Kindle for PC" and the book will look fine on a real Kindle, but I would like independent verification
