For those who haven't heard the news...

... on Saturday, Baen Books will become available as eBooks on Amazon.com.

This will eliminate the questions/comments of "why can't I get your book on Kindle" and, hopefully, significantly increase sales!

I don't know if I'm "YAY!" yet or not. I've owned my Kindle and my Nook for about two weeks, and all my books pass through my Kindle PC space. I haven't successfully migrated my books in .EPUB format to the Nook, yet. For the Kindle, I downloaded in "Kindle" format (.PRC/.MOBI) and hooked up the USB cable and slid them over, no sweat.

On the DRM side, I don't know for sure but I think DRM is up to the Publisher.

I had no problem doing the same for my Fictionwise eBooks until yesterday, when Fictionwise pretty much went out of business. My books were supposed to transfer to Barnes & Noble, but so far...
