Shame as they have some good books. Oreilly however, seem much more enlightened and will provide digital versions (without DRM) if you purchase a book. I may just have to do that.

O'Reilly is indeed an excellent publisher and very enlightened about ebooks ; they sell drm-free multiformat bundles of their books for very reasonable prices, and they are highly respected for the quality of their books. it's a very good idea to try to find the books you need from them. i'm glad you've found a solution to your problem (except for the pdf you already purchased). hopefully apress will take a different approach to ebooks soon, since it's really a shame to sell ebooks which cannot be read on a dedicated ebook device...
