I am annoyed to see that Kindle Previewer is still not available for Linux. This annoys me because the program is written in Java using SWT so it should be trivial to create a Linux version. I end up running it under WINE, which works, but it runs very slowly. It really is only good for doing a quick check. Fortunately I have an actual Kindle for serious proofing.

As input format they accept HTML5 and CSS3, not that that will help us submitters because PG refuses to accept HTML5. Hopefully PG will at least pick up the new version of kindlegen so they can turn back off some of the Marcello file rewriting.****
