Thanks for writing, Edward!

I would love to know what’s been sent to what device (we can currently only see a few “recent successful deliveries” under Pending Deliveries at http://www.amazon.com/myk).

I don’t know that selective removal will be possible, though. We haven’t been able to remove a file from a specific device from the http://www.amazon.com/myk page…although that could be part of this.

Whispercast seems to only be available for business and education (from what I read) but hopefully Amazon will bring some of those capabilities to individual User accounts. Even I’m starting to get a large number of devices on my account.

I saw the PR and put it on my to be read queue, but your post moves it much closer to the top. I just spent a couple of hours today trying to organize my kindle content across 8 devices/apps.

One thing I’d like to see is some way to create a consolidated picture/report of what is currently on all my devices/apps. It’s not enough to be able to blast content out to many devices, but also at the end of a semester to selectively remove content.
