From Kindle regarding Native PDF Support for the Kindle 2 (Kindle DX now ships with it)

Hello,

I’m sorry, but at this time, we don’t have specific information about the software update for native PDF support on Kindle 2. We appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter.

However, I’ve treated your concern as a feedback and forwarded your comments to our Kindle team. It is always important for us to hear how customers react to all aspects. Your valuable feedback will help us to improve the selection and service we provide, and we’re glad you took time to write to us.

If you have any further queries or need any assistance, you can reach our Kindle Specialists directly by calling 1-866-321-8851 or using the Contact Us option in the right-hand column of our Kindle Support pages at:

www.amazon.com/kindlesupport

Thanks for your interest in Kindle.

Don’t get me wrong, I love my Kindle 2. But we’re talking a minor software upgrade pushed out to all Kindles with the same/similar code that the DX now has. I don’t see the issue here other than Amazon wanting Kindle 2/Kindle 1 owners to upgrade to a DX (which for me, won’t happen).

I am so flattered that you cared enough about me to come here and read this little…..”bio”. Really, I am

Who am I you are asking. First of all, my name is David Nick. I live in Minnesota, and since 1994 I have worked in Information Technology as anything from a bench level repair guy, network installer, Network/Sys Admin, Software Configuration Manager, to finally deciding once and for all that Software Development was where I needed to be.

I recently finished my first college degree in Liberal Arts, and now I am adding that Science portion to my skills portfolio. I should be wrapped up with all of my formal schooling in less than 2 years. What a journey this has been.

I am currently married, and my wife and I have our first child.

Balancing work (school is work), marriage, parenting, hobbies, and social time is a daunting task for any one, let alone a programmer. BUT IT IS DO-ABLE!

And there ya have it in a brief nutshell. I have many other interests of course, and with time you will hear all about them I’m sure.

Thank you for reading this page. Feel free to email me directly if you have any questions, comments, or concerns @ dnick AT remotecoder DOT us.
