Thanks for the correction, Al! I\'ll include it in the next episode of the podcast.
Kindle spotted hidden in tv conmercial
By now I\'m sure most of you in the new York area have seen the verizon fios commercial in which the the fios serviceman meets the cable service in the hallkwsy of an apartment building and Dicuss their workload. The fios service checks his list on a high tech input device, WHICH IS ACTUALLY A KINDLE!
I listen to your podcast at my home in Shanghai China. I am from Oregon, but live here now.
I got my Kindle as soon as Amazon annouced it. Not to be delivered overseas, I had my Kindle delivered to my father in Oregon. He then mailed it to me.
I have a bank account at Bank of America which I use to purchase materials and gifts from Amazon.
I cannot use Whispernet here, but the USB cord works fine with me. I get books within minutes this way.
I have over 60 books, magazines, blogs and newspapers on my Kindle.
I look forward to your podcast every week now. I usually listen to it twice to get everything out of it.
Like others I think you should shoot for an hour long podcast.
By the way, I really enjoyed your interview with Billy Bolger. I read the biography of him and his brother a few years ago.
Keep up the good work.

You mentioned in your podcast that the SD card must be empty and the Kindle must be turned off to insert it. I just plugged mine in after loading a bunch of files using my card reader. It loaded just fine. Your books have to be in the SD/documents folder.
For a man whose political life sounded like a combination of _All the King\'s Men_ and \"The Departed\", Bill Bulger was very charming, and most certainly reminded me of my mother when it comes to an innate fear of electronics. I can imagine his book is quite entertaining. I hope you do a follow-up with him in the future.
Once again, Len, another fine podcast.
Got today\'s Kindle Chronicle by 5:30 a.m. Alaska time, so I was able to download it to my iPod and enjoy it during my morning workout. You\'re wearing down my resistance with each episode. I\'m thinking this may have to top my Christmas wish list. - Kes
Thank you for mentioning again Feedbooks. There\'s a new tutorial video available for the guide (books, not RSS) if you\'re interested: http://www.vimeo.com/1531393
Might be handy for the non-techie types out there !
