RE: costs of iPhone ebook publishing...

You don't _have_ to go through iTunes to distribute ebooks if you don't give
a fig about DRM. We've gone the route of direct download from our website to
the iPhone.

And the Baen Free library is now available for the iPhone / iTouch.

I kind of wonder if the iStore would distribute ebooks as well as  
software. Supposedly Steve Jobs doesn't think much of ebooks.
