...for now.

I wonder how much he gets paid for shit like this?

A lot, I would bet. From what I'm reading it'll be Kindle only for 3 months, then released as a download.

I don't get the whole craze with electronic books. Personally except for research or school work I would much rather have a real book rather than the kindle. Of course I wish I had a kindle for my way to many research books

It's generally (for me at least) faster and easier to read on a screen, but I still think I'd rather have the physical book if I was going to pay for it. Of course, it's Stephen King, of whom I'm no fan, so I'd rather not have it in any format.

Yeah, way to stick it to him!
