HOW TO KNOW WHEN A REQUEST FOR A KINDLE VERSION HAS BEEN FILLEDThis tip came from M. Francis in an Amazon forum thread.
1. If you want a publisher to create a Kindle version of a book you want to read, let them know on the book's product page, on the left, below the book's main description.
2. Then add the hard copy book to your Amazon wish list.
3. Once that's done, go visit Mysteria, "your obsessive, obsequious librarian for all your digital stuff." She's always on-call, working endlessly in the background searching for what you told her (via your public Amazon wishlist(s)) you have to have (books, music, videos).
Read the page, as it's an entertaining intro. The number of items she is tracking will show up on the upper right of that page.
4. If you've not registered before, sign up (there's no cost or spam, people say), and type into the Sign-up box the email address you use for correspondence with Amazon. If you use that address, she'll also automatically check to see if you have new requests in any of your wishlists.
5. When a Kindle book (or digital movie or song download) you wanted has become available, she'll send you an e-mail.
6. Here's how it works.
And the service is free.
LEN EDGERLY OF THE KINDLE CHRONICLES PODCAST RECOMMENDS ZOOLERT
Zoolert says that they hunt, we gather. They track hard-to-find items, but best, they TRACK PRICES of Amazon items you want and will send you an alert when an acceptable price you set has been met.
Len and his listeners say this works well for them, the original recommendation coming from Yisroel Parker, and Len Charnoff has a helpful tutorial on using Zoolert. Below are ways to Share this post if you'd like others to see it.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.
Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.
Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.
Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.
Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).
IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.
TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
