UPDATED Opinion
Kama Sutra
I guess I made an unfair judgment on Kama Sutra eBook by claiming it was using overprice strategy to create impression to ebook buyers while the free version is available elsewhere.
The 1 MB eBook version sold via Fictionwise is indeed a very well prepared ebook based on Sir Richard Burton's translation with additions of classic painting illustrations.
This is an email from Jon Noring regarding my comment:
I read your blog item from a few days ago concerning an ebook version of the Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana. Since that title is the "flagship" ebook of my small publishing business, you may be interested in reviewing my version...
Attached is a complimentary copy of my MS Reader version of "The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana" translated by Sir Richard F. Burton -- for your review. I hope you enjoy it.
I strongly encourage you to first read this ebook using MS Reader 2.0 for the Desktop, to try out its various features, before you look at it on your PocketPC. I employ pagelets and Tours (rarely used MS Reader features) which are best seen on the Desktop version (pagelets are supported by the PocketPC, but not Tours.)
