The Pragmatic Programmer. The sell either. And gie a substantial discount to buy both together.

Even better, the eBooks are DRM free. And you can have PDF, ePub, or MobiPocket formats. Or, ALL THREE!

They do it really, really smart. On every page of the eBook, there is the buyer's name.

As mentioned already, a handful of publishers will do this -- largely for IT and technical manuals.

It's highly likely that once you start using an ereader, you will wind up using it both at home and while traveling. That ought to solve your dilemma.

I'd love this bundle for cookbooks - paper for in the kitchen and the eBook for planning grocery lists while on the go or making sure I have all the ingredients at the store. I don't want to mess up my eReader while cooking.
