Zusammenfassung:A client (e.g., an eReader) receives and displays a sample version of an e-book or other content to a user retrieved from a store server. The sample version is a subset of the full version of the content. The client establishes a location in the sample content as a purchase point. The location of the purchase point may be determined by a content server, the client, or another entity. If the user consumes the content past the purchase point, the client treats the user's action as the user's intent to purchase the full version of the content. The client automatically performs a purchase transaction for the full version of the content, and prepares the full version for consumption by the user. The client seamlessly transitions the user to the full version.
