I saw the announcement but I've not delved into it yet.  It seems that Google eBooks are not compatible with my Kindle.  That distresses me a bit since I just bought the darn thing.  Maybe they will be in future.

I tried to find a couple books from my reading list just now and had no luck.  A few that I did find were the same price as Amazon.  I'm guessing there won't be much of a price difference between the 2 but that Amazon has more books.  That will surely even out over time.

Anybody try the Google eBookstore?

Asimov's Foundation you are allowed to read 6 chapters.
