Hello,
I have a Kindle DX, then I prefer the Kindle format than the PDFs. What I want to know is if there is any ebook for OS development on Kindle format(they are azw, mobi, prc).

Best Regards,
Nathan Paulino Campos

Isn't it quite easy to convert one to the other?

It's the painful converting process I ever seen! When it gets converted, you have many(soo much!) formating errors, also Kindle doesn't support tables or topics(bullets).

Tables need to be converted into images and the topics need to be converted into -'s.
The codes and these things that have anormal formattings(many tabs), loose them all.

Resuming, it's the worst converting tool I ever seen!

From wikipedia, I get that your Kindle support PDFs natively. Why even bother converting to a standard which apparently is less featured and results in conversion bugs if you're supposed to be able to use the original directly?

It's ubuntu-nathan from #osdev

I know exactly who I'm dealing with, and sadly, he hasn't improved since last time I hinted him to GTFO. (see the bootprog thread)
