Why am I not surprised that the No. 1 ebook downloaded free at the Gutenberg website is 'The Kama Sutra'

I wonder how long it's held that position?

 Kindles are 3G so you just order using your Kindle and your Amazon account. Type in the Author and it lists the books available and the price. You then click "buy" and the book is downloaded on to your machine.

Ah, that's what I wanted to know. Might ask Susan to bring hers to the market tomorrow and show me how it all works. Soon be christmas. :D

Well it's been on my book shelves for 40 years. Don't think I've looked at it for at least 35! :o

Just had a quick scan over my bookshelves. Spotted "The Perfumed Garden". I know the "Kama Sutra" was on offer in "Bargain Books" a few years ago, but I don't think I bought it! I suppose the Kindle is handy in that you don't lose your page when you get distracted by other things!
