I experienced the same letdown. I was super excited that I'd be able to start reading books at work (the Kindle PC App is "unapproved" software). Still, I guess it is nice to be able to preview books right away instead of having to go through the cycle of Send Preview to Kindle, Read Preview on Kindle, Go to web browser, look up book, buy book, and send back to Kindle.

You don't need to "Go to web browser, look up book, buy book, and send back to Kindle". You can buy the book directly from the sample with two clicks (menu -> buy this book)

  Unfortunately I've also accidentally ordered books (more than once) when trying to delete the sample. As a testament to Amazon's great CS though, I've gotten refunded immediately when that has happened.

  I do all my reading from the Kindle App on the iPad, which does not allow in-app purchasing of books. So that's where I grabbed my workflow from. I do understand it's easier if buying from an actual Kindle device.
