That's pretty cool...

I think the size limit would be whatever the mail limit is...

When I registered my Kindle, I was given an email address (actually 2)
that you can send documents (PDF, Word, etc) to ({[email protected]
{[email protected]).

IF you send the docs with 'Convert' in the subject line to the first
address, Amazon will convert them and then send them wirelessly to the
device (there is a fee for this, small, but still a fee). If you send
the docs with "convert' in the subject line to the second address,
Amazon will convert them and send you an email with a link so you can
download them and manually put them on your Kindle (there is no fee
for this). I think there is a limit to the size fiel that can be
converted - the CFML Reference in PDF will nto convert, but I am not
sure if that is restriction from Amazon or not being able to send that
big of an attachment.
