Hello all.

1) I'm in Canada, and there's a book I really want:

Anathem, by Neal Stephenson

But, on sony's ebookstore, it shows the book is available in "US Only". I've never seen this before, and I bought 33 books so far through Sony's site.

Is there any way I can somehow get this book? The hardcover book us available in stores here... but who wants to get that crazy old paper version?!?

2) I bought, from Sony's store:

The Sunrise Lands, by S. M. Stirling

This book has many words that have a space in them... at least one every 2 pages (often more than one on a single page). I find it very distracting. Is there anything I can do about this... like get a refund? I stopped reading it because it was too annoying.
