Ok, so I'm slow.....
One textbook has a publisher supplied Kindle version. I was just about to order it. Then I noticed a "sample" button. So I clicked that. Turned on the wireless (I keep it off to save power, plus I haven't needed it till now) and there's the Forward, Introduction, Chapter 1 and the first page of Chapter 2. I can't make notes because it's a sample. But it's a first step to buying a Kindle only book.
Just for fun, I put in "free Kindle book" into amazon and wham! The list of books that is $0.00 or $0.01 is pretty good. Sure, some of them I could do myself (20,000 Leagues Under the Sea) but they do it for me, and for free. So I "bought" about 6 of these free books. This will give me something to distract me from reading textbooks. And it'll let me play with some of the official Kindle books. I want to check out the text to speech feature.
