Digital BW, The Print

Keith: <I just got my first copy of Harald (don't call me Howard) Johnson's 
new book: "Mastering Digital Printing." My initial review can be summed up in 
one word "WOW!"...SNIPPY >

1. thanks Keith.

2. Jerry: <Amazon says the book won't be delivered until august to december 
2003! Isn't the book out now?>

Amazon's messing with my mind again. If you click one of the other delivery 
options, it should say "Unknown ship date." (You'll note that Amazon is say 
the publishing date is "December 2002")

3. to all...  I don't have a clue why the book hasn't shipped yet; it's been 
out of my hands since October. (BTW, Keith received a "Review Copy" direct 
from the publisher.)

I suggest you contact Amazon (book-dept@...), B&N (800-843-2665 USA, 
201-272-3651 INTL), et al. and do some squeaky-wheel screaming (I'm doing the 
same). The book is printed, and they should have it. The ISBN # is: 
1-929685-65-3.

If you want it for a gift, and if Amazon, et al. don't get it together to 
ship the book to be received in time for holiday gifts, here's what I'll do: 
I'll design and post a Gift Card for the book. You could print it, put it in 
an envelope, and place it under the tree or however you do your gift-giving. 
Let me know.

I'm very frustrated about this delay and confusion with the book's delivery. 
Like Benjamin says, there's just not a darn thing I can do about it.
