New Book Publishing Technologyhttp://www.ondemandbooks.com/home.htm
Books printed, published, bound, and in your hands in about five minutes. This is way cool. They have 200,000 titles now with over a million available by year's end....
This is the future of books, besides Kindle. I expect a number of these machines to be available in most communities and even some libraries within the next few years.
