Wow--this is great input--thanks! I'm taking notes and will assemble the information to send on to the PTB. The comment about it being a steep learning curve is right. With so many devices and file types, there is a lot of room for confusion.. I really think it would be worthwhile for the major publishing houses to have an ebook room containing a wide range of devices for testing and checking how files work. They may already have something like this--it would certainly make sense.

Oh, and the publisher got a lot of urging via email during the download (which they've actually extended several days btw, in case anyone still wants to grab it) to get the series into ebook form asap, and they seem to be very encouraged and interested in doing that, which is cool. I'm hoping all this feedback will help them in that process. I'd love to see the books in front of ebook readers all over the world And I'll pass along the offers for technical assistance in getting files converted, too--it sounds like it can be a tricky process.
