I'm gonna say it--I liked KIM. Not for the obvious reasons. I thought it was going to be a waste of time, but you know, the Harry Potter that I bought to see how it worked was actually pretty cool. In some ways, it combined the best features of an eBook+a real illustrated kids' book.
I'm the one, (after Wolfie) always kvetching that books should be books, not some klugey chimera, but...I liked them. I'm sorry that they abandoned it.

As Tex2002ans would tell you, ME TOO. We're working together (to be honest, he's doing all the work part) on a book right now that badly, badly needs it. (sigh).
