The main problem, if I recall, is that you don't live anywhere near your cousin who owns the iPod Touch. Unless you want to get your own iPhone or iPod Touch and redownload the book, it's going to be a hassel. At this point since it's just one book, I'd consider it a loss (it's too late to ask for a refund).
You may want to hold out for the Barnes & Noble ebook store. I highly suggest taking a quick look at their terms and conditions before you purchase (or lease as in the case of Amazon), so you don't get burned again.

How'd you remember that? Yeah, my cousin lives 4 hours away. Since then I've found many other resources other than Amazon, including using my local library to borrow books, so just as I suspected, it's becoming less of an issue. I suspect by next year either Amazon will open it's doors or pricing elsewhere will be just as competitive across the board.
