Yes, I can put the Kindle app onto my Android and read it that way.

It's just much easier to read on my Nook. Bigger screen and all. Amazon uses their proprietary MOBI format. Pretty much every other e-reader uses EPUB.

Nevertheless, I'll still give it a read come the 1st.

I've tried before. The formatting always ends up really weird. Any tips?

Hmmm, I use it all the time to convert mobi so I can read on my iPad. Never had any problem.

How are you moving the files around devices?

Admittedly, I've never tried to convert a mobi to an epub. I have always tried to convert PDFs to epub, so therein might lie the problem.

I usually just convert, plug my Nook into the computer via USB, and drag-and-drop.

I haven't had PDF to mobi turn out well, ever. Maybe the newer Kindles deal with PDFs better, my Kindle doesn't deliver up PDFs well.. I can read PDFs just fine, without converting them, on my iPad.

At one time way back I had a nice little Perl script that converted PDF to TXT. Might be a middle step to try. PDf to TXT to ePub. May work, or just may turn out awful.

Why would you think such a thing?

Each time he opens his mouth I hear less and less thought. I do not know if he is just overmanaged or suffering from brain freeze. Is that the destruction you expect?
Please provide some preview ideas and or observations. I am not going to read a book on Revelations withot being shown some reasons to create curiosity. It is possible to write an interesting book on Revelation, I suppose. But I think there have been a surplus of lame ones. And beyond those there are the really bad ones.

Go to http://www.fauxcity.com and you will find some information on the book, which is based on the author's life. If you want a free digital copy of the book, let me know and I will arrange it.
