Me too... but Rowling's big on controlling reader's experiences. I *hope* for PDFs that don't look awful on 6" screens, but I expect trade paperback-sized PDFs, with half-inch margins and lots of pictures, that get botched layouts when they hit reflow.

Beedle the Bard, especially, wouldn't translate well to ePub or Mobi; a lot of the pages have artwork frames around them.
