I've read a few Pragmatic Programmer books on the Kindle. Dave Thomas has done a wonderful job with handling tables and code examples! Conversion from PDF to mobi often doesn't work well, but Dave implemented a custom conversion that produces really good results. If you select a code example, the Kindle rotates the code 90 degrees and zooms in to fill the screen with the code. Very nice! -- R. Mark Volkmann Object Computing, Inc.
