		<description>Jane, just a quick word to update you on the NAEB reader. Bookeen has a new site up for those who want to check out their product, it has a picture and specifications. 

Unfortunately, due to one thing and another, they haven&#039;t managed to get our evaluation units to us yet. David says they will just as soon as they come off the production line. Grrr. I hate waiting!

Bookeen does not sell Individual readers, their minimum order is 200 units, so we are going to be one of the places where you can get them. We hope to be able to give those who buy through us the best deal possible, but that will depend on our buying power and that will depend on how many want to use us to purchase.  Right now we have a little over 500 signed in on our &quot;I&#039;m interested&quot; page.

Once we have the eval units in hand and can give a review of what they are like and how they work we&#039;ll see how that translates into a &quot;I want one&quot; page. Grin. The more we can order at once the better the deal we can get our members from Bookeen.

		<description>We are developing a software suite that helps you publish and read electronic books.  The Bytesize reader, the piece currently available, reads Bytesize published documents.  We have lots of samples on our web site at www.bytesizesystems.com.  You can download the reader and Bytesize published books and documents.  You should find that the reader makes the books very easy to read and study.  Our main purpose is to provide a reader to &#039;intensely read&#039; books and documents that lets you browse, highlight, annotate, and search in useful ways.  We hope you will find the reading and studying experience superior to other readers.  
 
Down the road, users of the Bytesize suite will be able to import lots of formats into Bytesize format, and publish their own works in Bytesize format.  We think it will be very useful to teachers building course materials, ebook authors, and anyone studying lots of documents to create new knowledge.  
 
We&#039;d love to get input from new users of the software on what you like and how you think it can be made more useful.  Our early test users are mostly college and high school level instructors and students.  We need a broader base of input.  Download the software (free), try some of the free Bytesize documents on the web site, and send your thoughts to info@bytesizesystems.com.  Thanks,

		<description>Grin. On one hand I&#039;m sorry you had this experience, Jane. OTH I&#039;m glad since it points out things that we want to AVOID in our own efforts to bring out a reader. 

Sigh, I can hardly wait till April when we should finally be getting some Bookeen units for evaluation. I&#039;ll be sure to keep you in the loop as to how it goes.</description>

		<description>This is a very funny piece. May I reprint a small part of it in a book I am editing on Internet Style, which ends with a riff on the Future of the Book? I&#039;d need permission by tomorrow mornign to make my deadline.  We&#039;ll send you a copy of the book when it&#039;s published.</description>

		<description>The first ebooks I purchased were in protected Acrobat format (my younger self was not well-informed). The experience was not pleasant. I concluded that I didn&#039;t like reading on my computer but FBReader has changed my mind. If I have to read on my computer, I want a reader that I can customize to my own idiosyncratic requirements. So the latest Adobe reduces the user customization and includes ads - bah humbug.</description>
