As can be seen from my questions, I am struggling to make Mathematica do something useful. The amount of tutorials on the Wolfram web site is a bit overwhelming, especially that I don't have too much time to read them. However, I am commuting for about 90 minutes per day, and having the Mathematica documentation (even just the one that comes with the software) in Kindle-friendly format (I'd even accept pdf) would be a great thing for me. Can I find a downloadable version of Mma docs (in pdf, or even better, in epub/mobi) anywhere?

Nope, thanks! BTW: thank you for your book on Mma programming, I already have it on my Kindle and have read quite a bit! (And could you make this an answer, so that I can accept it?) – mbork Sep 29 '12 at 17:29

Well... 70 EUR - waaay above my price range. I'd pay, say up to 10 USD; this price looks more like a joke for me. Of course, with 1200+pages it might be fair, but I guess 80% of those pages would be of no use to me. Anyway, thanks. – mbork Sep 29 '12 at 19:24

Mathematica's documentation is also available online in the pdf format, as a tutorial collection. The place to look for it is here. Also, some books on Mathematica are now available as kindle editions, from Amazon. Finally, for those books which have Mathematica notebook versions, you can probably make a pdf from those notebooks for a personal use, if that does not violate the book's license.
