I tried them and the results were not great. They didn't OCR it (though I think they do now?) and the resulting PDF was pretty much unreadable on my Kindle.
For the ones that are seeing a different price. There is a small trick workaround for that. You can generate a real US address here: http://www.realusaaddress.com/ and make that your primary address. As you as shipping digital stuff it doesn't matter that it's not your real address. Prices of the Kindle store should drop immediately. Watch out when making non digital purchases though that you select the correct addre…
Yes you can use a fake US address and set your Kindle country to the US, but Amazon monitors the IPs (and credit cards) you are buying from and after a few purchaes to your fake US address, they'll start sending you letters asking for proof you live there and eventually lock you out (force you to change back to your real country) if you can't provide them.

tons of hoops to jump to use a Kindle Fire outside the U.S.

I am well aware that the world of international publishing is a convoluted mess (Charles Stross covers it well over on antipope); I'm not sympathetic enough to that mess to be willing to get charged such disparate amounts.
Reading the comments/reviews on Amazon, and I was wondering what peoples take on this book is for non-coders? I'm purely editorial/product (not project) management - but this looks like it could give me a rounded understanding of best practice. Those who have read it, would you recommend to someone of my background?
Affiliate tag? Not cool.
I honestly think people that complain about referral link are just inherently negative. A free link, that takes you to a promotion, that saves you money, and you want to point out that the guy who brought this to your attention, is gaining something positive, at no expense to you or anyone. You probably pirated the book too. Thanks OP, great deal and I bought it.

By the by, for those familiar with the pragmatic bookshelf, and were hoping to get it without DRM on that site, this was published by Addison Wesley, not pragmatic bookshelf. One wonders how much the authors' experience publishing with Addison Wesley led to their founding Pragmatic Bookshelf. They do have a page for the book on their site: http://pragprog.com/the-pragmatic-programmer/ But the buy link is broken: http…
Would ya'll like a DRM-free version of TPP from our site?

I had a library of around 1000+ books; any book I couldn't get as a Kindle book, I had 1dollarscan.com scan. They did a phenomenal job. No relation, just very satisfied with their results.
Is it allowed for all books? I've a few physical books that don't have digital versions, it would be nice to scan them and give the physical ones away.
