Dear AJ:
Yes, I caught hell from the PM about leaking info on the eBook Store website!! He ripped me to shreads and threatened to keep me off the forum. I was trying to get people ready for a great new place to buy eBooks (release due today or tomorrow by the way). I keep telling him that otherwise people just go buy elsewhere and we lose the sales.
Hints can work to build a initial rush for our store and to make members aware that we ARE listening to them. After CES we had precious little new to say. Threads were seering few posts and interest was fading. After a small hint about the eBook Store that one thread drew 200 posts in 48 hours! I am NOT all about raising the level of posts... but it did draw a lot of new posters.
I thank you for your post!! This new site will be worth your wait!!
