I was just looking at Jayne Castle's "Silver Master". It's a 7.99 Mass Market paperback, but eReader, Powells, and Books on Board all are listing it as a 9.99 book (with various discounting)! I can't believe Penguin actually thinks they're going to get <em>any</em> digital business if they price the ebooks <em>higher</em> than the print copies! (Sorry about all the exclamation marks, but I'm po'd). Lags behind on ebooks is right! I was just looking at Jayne Castle’s “Silver Master”.

I know the one I go to in town for new books doesn't even have a computer. And seeing hte boxes that Penguin ships books in....they'd save a hell of a lot of money just packing things better!
