Amazon recently introduced the Kindle 2.
If you are a self-published author and you have not heard of Kindle, click here for more information.
Why should you offer a Kindle edition of your book?
An ebook edition of your self-published book can help with the promotion of your hard copy format. Keep in mind that distribution of an ebook is quicker and more affordable. By giving people a choice between your ebook and your paperback, you offer them two different price points.
If you have an ebook edition of your book, perhaps you are already using it to promote your hard copy format on sites like Amazon’s Kindle Store. If so, don’t worry, the Kindle 2 is compatible with all of the Kindle books already in the Kindle store, so you do not need to submit another format.
If you don’t have an ebook edition, you should consider getting one and submitting it to Amazon’s Kindle store. Now is a great time to do that since Amazon is currently promoting the new Kindle 2. Here’s where you can submit your ebook format for Amazon’s Kindle store: dtp.amazon.com.
Good luck and have fun!

I’m impressed with Kindle’s screen in particular; it’s as easy on the eyes as regular paper
I just gotta say I love my kindle and the cheap books.
My taste is a bit rough but I enjoyed “The Misogynist” by Emily Downs. It’s only a dollar for a new artist with great talent.
It can be a bit vulgar at times. Be warned. But it’s cheap.
