Clap, clap! As for the rest, I'm cheering on publishers with the guts to experiment with new biz models, and your early release of e-books definitely falls within that category. This is newsworthy, given S&S's size. I recall that HarperCollins is also doing interesting things with release dates. I hope you'll keep me informed of the results of such experiments--and will let me know if you do add the iPod format. Let's hope this open-mindedness can help you reach new audiences. - David <em>Reminder:</em> The TeleBlog wants publishers of all sizes to succeed. I'm also eager to <a href="mailto:drNOSPAMteleread.com" rel="nofollow">hear</a> from <em>small</em> publishers breaking out of the box. Well, Claire, congrats to Christian on the iPod angle, then.

Please note that this particular bit of genius is all the efforts of Christian Smythe, and not me. I just jumped up and down clapping my hands in glee as he does all the heavy lifting.
