Steve,

Since it such a schlepp, why don't you participate in the development or
support the developers?

Never mind that LyX seems to predate the Kindle, this is a LaTeX issue
rather than a LyX one (which, after all, just a front end).

As written numerous times I am very keen on on the new DocBook format
but since I use LyX in production in my practice, I can't use two
different formats, and my staff can't cope with alpha software.

So patience is a virtue on the one hand but trying out stuff like this
is interesting.
