Text Encoding for Kindle with Python
Use <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
I previously used <meta charset="UTF-8" />, which did not seem to work.
Basicly, I'm crawling text from a webpage with python using Beautifulsoup, then save it as an HTML and send it to my Kindle as a mail attachement. The problem is; Kindle supports Latin1(ISO-8859-1) encoding, however the text I'm parsing includes characters that are not a part of Latin1. So when I try to encode text as Latin1 python gives following error because of the illegal characters:

UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1' codec can't encode character u'\u2019'
  in position 17: ordinal not in range(256)

When I try to encode it as UTF-8, this time script runs perfectly but Kindle replaces some incompatible characters with gibberish.
