Bob, thanks for the pointer to the "Books we would like" - I'll check that thread out...

In all honesty, I haven't had a chance to play with the RSS feed yet. I'm crippled by the fact that the Reader is my Christmas present and I can't let the kids see me using it! I won't be able to explain to them that it's OK for me to get my presents early but not them...

So, most of my usage beyond an initial charging and downloading a few select titles (you know, just to make sure it is working <wink wink>) has been furtive reading late at night.

The comics/graphic novels/manga section of the store is there, but woefully understocked.

I've been evangelizing at work with my traveling counterparts, and one senior executive commented that he would like to see the "cliff notes" versions of popular business books made available. I think this is a very good fit for the business traveler target audience...
