All I can say is Hallelujah!  Cheesy  My first kindle is en-route to me as I type, and I've been practically frying my brain on all the research ch I've been doing, and all the things I want for it.   I think I have about a hundred free books already saved on my computer, waiting...just waiting.... Roll Eyes

I know I will really appreciate the guide; thank you!   Grin

I got all dressed up but I missed the party  Cry  Is this something that can be added to or is it a one time thing until another version is published?

Any news?  Is there any reason why the pdf isn't up on Kindleboards?  How much longer?  Just curious.  I hope everyone has a nice day.  Thanks

It's in review by Amazon - we'll release it here as well when it's up on Amazon. Amazon can take up to five days, but we're hoping for early this week.
