     I do mail at about 4am EST.  Maybe things are messed up with   
     my very old dos based BBS software. ;)  Today I slept in so   
     it's currently 8:15am as I type this on Monday.

     Kindle doens't do epub.  I keep the epub in calibre and just   
     convert it to mobi and copy onto the kindle.

     Amazon can take them away from you.  Something happened a few   
     years back where they lost the rights to sell some books so   
     if you didn't have it on your reader backed up it was gone from   
     your kindle account.  Basically I don't trust Amazon, I like   
     their device though.
