A topic from Technology: Handheld Devices

laresFri 13/01/12 20:17		"Amazon has released an application that will let Kindle users synchronize and view Microsoft files held in cloud storage via their devices. The 'Send to Kindle' for PC application, - according to Amazon, adds a right-click option on any Windows application that adds a Send to Kindle option to the Select Printer list in the Print dialog. Send to Kindle then converts the file to the Kindle's .azw format, boots the image up into cloud storage via email, and synchronizes with the device. PDFs, however, have to be converted separately." "In practice this covers most basic file types, such as Word documents and JPEGs, but don't expect to be flicking through PowerPoint presentations or Excel spreadsheets with the application as it now stands. It will also sync notes, highlights, and bookmarks as stored in the .azw format." http://1sq.me/z8VM9y
