I desperately want to read the WROX books I've purchased (physically) while commuting from NJ to NYC and back. Try being squeezed in the train an opening a book - it's next to impossible.

I've already paid $44.95 for your book. Even with the 35% off code, asking me to pay another $29.00 to get my book in a different format seems quite excessive. At half that price, and I'd probably jump on it. At $10, I'm all in. And if free, well, I'll be a long time customer.

Books by Manning Publications (www.manning.com) include a bound-in sheet with a set of codes. After following the instructions on their website, punching in two sets of codes as specified, you get emailed the book in .PDF, .mobi and .epub formats. Cool - but I's be happy with the .PDF alone. To protect their rights, in each of the files, the system inserts a footer at the bottom of each page with you name and email address. Seems like a fair tradeoff to me. The other cool thing they did was to also include the previous edition of my book. Nice!

I'm also an Apress (www.apress.com) fan - with their $10 eBook (.PDF) editions of the book you already own, and their daily $10 eBook of the day offer. I've purchased over $180 of eBooks this way.

Hope all at WROX can come to a good decision on this soon!
