Aha!

The other day I downloaded an e-book, and e-mailed it to my Kindle. Today I got an e-mail explaining that I’d been charged 30 cents for this service.

When I first got my Kindle, I was told that sending documents to the Kindle cost 10 cents each. When the Kindle 2 was released, they changed the policy to 15 cents/megabyte. However, this is the first time I’ve actually been charged.

I’m not complaining, mind you; but since I’ve told everyone that I’d never been charged for e-mails to the Kindle I thought I should also tell everyone that the policy has finally changed.

By comparison, sending a single book through the US Mail costs over two dollars, says my wife the PaperbackSwapper.
