    Time Event
    3:07p
    Time for another ebook rant
    So last night I got my dead-tree (paperback) copy of Halting State from Amazon. It cost me $8. But, really, I want an ebook so I can read it on my Cybook. As previously written, I'd be willing to pay $2 on top of the $8 I already paid to have both editions. Not $24 (diesel-ebooks). Not $25 (ebooks.com, US penguingroup, ereadable). Not even $15 (fictionwise). Even Amazon charge $10 for the Kindle edition.

    WTF? I'm not even able to find an ebook version as cheap as the dead tree, let alone at the price I want to pay.

    Ridiculous
