If you are using Chrome this extension does the same thing without signing up for anything:

I have been using it for weeks. It does an excellent job and costs nothing.

I had been using this a few months ago, but I kept running into formatting issues when the article arrived on the kindle. Particularly with advertisements. I don't necessarily need ads removed (but that's nice), but often an ad would be completely mangled. Not only was it unintelligible, it would also be several times larger/more obtrusive than the original. But, it sounds like maybe they've fixed some of those issues.

I'll have to do a comparison tonight - if either Klip.me has improved or the readability send-to-kindle does a better job I will be very happy.

I like this plugin a lot better than readability. One major problem with Readability, is that it only works with the most liberal cookie policies, but "Send to Kindle" will show me a beautiful reading screen with my draconian cookie policies untouched.
Agreed! If you've tried it before note that it also includes images from the page now.
Fantastic. This feature is killer. It's missing from instapaper and I really miss those images. Especially for tech articles.
