Aye, sort of regret ever setting foot in this thread. It can only really lead to controversy and spite since none of us are clairvoyants. Not even interested in the price itself, just find the possibilities and opportunities ahead of the ebook field absolutely fascinating. It's extremely disheartening to see publishers fight it tooth and nail when they could embrace it and bring true innovation to a mostly stagnant industry. No matter, with that technical essay I think it's time to take my dramatic exit and find a less esoteric thread to rest my feathers in.
