Oh, don't get me wrong - I absolutely positively adore and love my Kindle! It's the greatest!! And I admit, I want immediate gratification most of the time, for sure.... but this - well, the hardcover is out there, so why can't I have the digital version now? THREE months is a LONG time to wait!

I've heard this particular publisher has changed to the "agency model" - which means we will pay more for the Kindle but will receive digital at the same time hardcover is released.

I think I'm just a little grumpy....stressed about business....and taking fertility meds is probably not helping me (I've heard they can make you a lil nutty!)....

I wasn't even sure anyone would respond to this thread - so I'm happy now

I did write to amazon and voiced my issue...and got a bogus canned response, which I expected - but it was good to have done it - I almost never do that kind of thing. I do think my idea is a good one - OFFER the Kindle version on time at a higher price - and the folks who want it now can get it now - and those who want the lower rate, can choose to wait. I don't like not having options! tee hee.

I admit, I will probably "go against myself" this weekend and buy the hardcover b/c I really want to read the darn book and May seems awfully far away right now. Plus you cand find the book at the grocery store for 45% off....still more than the Kindle version but I'd have it now, now, now!

oh yeah, and I'm super crabby b/c I've been on a dang diet forever and lately I find myself "starving" and cranky! Why, oh why can't cookies be made out of protein?!
