PDF is a terrible format to submit to the Kindle store. If you want some help, and you're donating all of your proceeds to charity, maybe I can help set you up with something at LiberWriter ( http://www.liberwriter.com )

Yes, an excellent point to remember. PDF's are de-facto any time you want to control the content in some fashion (formatting, copy/pasting, etc), and they do a good job- but the thing about e-readers is they need to be in control the formatting of the content.

This is why ebook formats (mobi, epub, even azw) are important.
