Right now we are only selling pre-orders, but when the book is officially available we will offer winners and submitters the following discounts:
Winners: 50% off, limit to 5 copies
Submitters: 20% off, limit to 3 copies
You will receive a separate e-mail soon with details about how to get your discount copies.
With final content ready, we are gearing up to submit our iPad publication for approval to Apple. Below are sample pages and functionality of the app. This way you can see if you would like to wait for it to be ready, rather than buying the book. It will retail for $19.99 when released. Why not free or $0.99? Because the book is neither free nor $0.99 either, and just because others can sell millions of Angry Birds games doesn’t mean we can price at those levels.

The file for the book will be available as a PDF download for those who don’t want to buy the book and don’t have an iPad but still want a digital version. The PDF will be available for $19.99 as well. A PDF with 13 sample spreads is available for preview here [27.6 Mb PDF].
