I was really excited about this, and haven't been dissapointed so far.

The jargon was a pain on an ebook, though. On my Kindle I set up a lot of bookmarks to quickly look things up..

That got irritating. Hypothetically, one might strip the DRM and convert it to a MOBI file, then take out the glossary and put it into a printable format and then print it out on paper. Then go about reading the book.

About 11 pages, double columned, I'd imagine.

Yep. Good idea, I think.... heh.
