I'm thinking of getting one of the new Kindles, and being able to read Hacker Monthly on it would be a big selling point. Has anyone put Hacker Monthly on their Kindle? How does that gorgeous PDF translate to the Kindle?
I'd love to have an audio version of these.
How do you plan to have the audio version of the code snippets? Some things are just not meant to be in audio.

I have just finished HM #2 on my 2nd gen kindle. It look gorgeous and it's easy to read even without rotating the screen. I can post some pictures of it somewhere if you need.
But I can also just take your word for it if you don't feel like taking and posting pictures.
I didn't appreciate Hacker Monthly until this issue. I missed "Lessons Learned From 13 Failed Software Products" when it passed through HN. Too many late nights at work! Lesson learned: summarize the strong signals in dynamic data. Not everyone looks for changes 10 times a day. On a related note, is there a RSS feed of the top daily HN links?

I wouldn't mind seeing a few pictures, especially of the more visual pages like the pictures leading into the articles, some of the ads, etc. But I can also just take your word for it if you don't feel like taking and posting pictures.
Reading was decently nice, but loading was a tiny bit slow and using the rocker instead of the next page button was a bit annoying when reading zoomed-in content. (I'd think that would be better on the K3's d-pad, though)
(I just noticed that some of the text is readable in the whole-page view in the screenshots - on the actual device, it's a tiny bit blurry)
