Update the list of formats to reflect that format "Sony Reader" now works with Kindle 2 v2.3 #95

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

Kindle 2 now supports pdf natively with firmware update v2.3. It makes sense 
to ensure that files produced by your service work on it too.

when I download a file from the library, I get a list of available formats.

File format that you guys call "Kindle" seems to be suited for the Kindle DX 
(the 
one with big screen). When loaded on Kindle 2, characters look too small. 
However files converted for Sony Reader work on Kindle 2 just fine. 

I suggest you either add a new "format" "Kindle 2" to the list but serve the 
same files as for the Sony or make the line in the list say "Sony Reader or 
Kindle 2"

The line that says "Kindle" right now should say "Kindle DX"

See screenshots. Even though the "formatted for kindle" looks ok on the 
screenshot, characters are really too small to read comfortably.

Those who can read small chars and don't mind, can always load the file 
formatted for Kindle DX.

Let us rename current one to "Kindle DX" and add new format "Kindle 2". This 
would allow us to track users per 
device type.

Once it is ready I can write blog post to blog.fb2pdf.com explaining how to use 
it on Kindle, including link to 
hack.
