I thought about it and remembered a lot of the things I used to do to prepare graphics for 2 bit, and had some limited success with photos, and GREAT success with others. I also figured out some great ways to prepare graphics for inclusion in an ebook. Lots of posting about this in the Kindle support pages, mainly about graphics being resized.

I did a lot of experimenting and was so happy with the results, I wrote a small ebook on how to prepare graphics for the Kindle using Photoshop (or another graphic editing application.

Look for it on the Amazon site under ASIN: B0018LILMO

I kept the price cheap. If I make enough for a trip for 2 to the movies I'd be happy.

I do hope to pull the book one day because of improvements to e-ink!]]>Apr 30th 2008 5:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/Jul 9th 2008 2:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/Jul 9th 2008 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/Aug 1st 2008 3:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/Sep 1st 2008 3:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.greencp.com and http://www.greencp.com/kindle/]]>Sep 10th 2008 7:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/

The consumers are the ones that matter. They will be the ones buying tablets and eReaders. Tech people don't know crap about consumers likes and dislikes. Tech-heads think everyone needs to live up to their high-tech standards. Make eReaders simple to use and easy to get media on it and it should be a pleasant experience. It's time for eReaders to start kicking paper's ass.]]>Jan 2nd 2010 2:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/Jan 29th 2009 3:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/

1. about 60% of high school graduates never read another book in their lifetime.

2. about 40% of college graduates never read another book in their lifetime.

3. Most US families have not been in a bookstore in the last 5 years.

4. The average book purchased is never read beyond page 17.

What chance is there that the Kindle will be a commercial success when it can't even produce color pictures? At least magazines have color and might be a good use for a Kindle like device.

Amazon owns Mobipocket so they're probably looking to protect that business. There are some books on there that look to be self-published or at least from non-mainstream publishers. I'm sure part of their future plans involve becoming a publisher.

I'm guessing they make the same amount whether they sell the item electronic or physical. Since Sony's reader will lock you into their drm format Amazon need to do this to sell their drm format.]]>Sep 11th 2006 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/11/amazon-kindle-meet-amazons-e-book-reader/Sep 11th 2006 4:03PM
