The joy of Kindle publishing is that you keep all the money ;-)

This is already #243 out of all Amazon, so I'd say he was correct in this ...

nice! but what's holding me back also is the lack of a digital version, otherwise i'd already have bought it.

It's better to call it self-publishing, not vanity press (a gatekeeping term).
