Moderator's Note: The date has been set. I copied the following info so it can be found easily by everyone:

Recap, to gather the information suggested.
Date: Monday 18th August
Time: 7pm onwards
Location: London Review of Books Signing Tent (Café Bar), Charlotte Square Gardens (possibly moving to Speigeltent, if we are still going after 9:30)
Transport: Charlotte square is close to numerous bus services, and about 15 mins walk from Edinburgh Waverly Train station. Fuller details are on the Book Festival website.
The gardens and venue are free to get in (I've checked this with the Festival staff!).
From the Festival website:
Beetroot Blue Café Bar in the London Review of Books Signing Tent
Fairtrade coffee, teas, whisky, wines and beer plus a range of light snacks, sandwiches and fresh salads. (From experience in previous year, Beetroot Blue is pretty good)
If you are bringing a device, could you either leave a reply with details of the devices, or drop me a message?
Current devices:
Iliad, Sony PRS-500, Kindle, Cybook

Would anyone be interested in meeting up during the festival in August, say on the 18th (though I've some flexibility here)?
I'd like to meet up at the
Book Festival, in
Charlotte Square, but I'm sure other locations would work if people have suggestions.
To give incentives, I'll bring along (assuming I haven't broken them!) an iLiad, PRS-500 and Kindle; I'd love to see some of the other types too..
Warning: given that it's festival-time, Edinburgh tends to hang up a "Sorry, No vacancies sign".
For those down south; I'll try and arrange something in London (or futher south!) in September.
