Have you had a chance to read the book yet, Paul?

Not yet... too lazy to wait for a standard delivery, that's why it'd be cool to have it for the Kindle.

It will be available as an eBook at some point this year but it won't be on Kindle because we want the colour photos to remain in colour.

On Kobo perhaps?

Aren't Kobo b/w readers too?

Yes and no, Sky. You can get Kobo ereaders that are just b/w, but you can also get ones that are color. I have a color one. They are very similar to the Kindle Fire ereaders, which is why I asked. It would be great to have Bob's book on an ereader.

Thanks, I'll pass that information on. I think the idea is to eventually have it available on as many colour platforms as possible.

Personally I'd love it as an audio book but I know that's a whole other beast.

Yeah, I'd like that too and I think it's worth considering.

I've got the Kindle Fire which does color - it's basically a tablet, not an ereader per se.... that's why I was wondering.

The Kindle and the Kobo could no doubt handle the book. It would be nice to have it on the Kindle app, which you can also get on the Kobo.

The book was fantastic, sky did a great job edited it, what a career Bob has had and I was impressed with his loyalty to Ozzy, despite the antics of Sharon, which are completely embarrassing..Hard to believe that Karma hasn't messed with her yet..but it's coming!

Thank you, it's nice of you to say that I did a great job, but you might not think that if you could see what I cut :D
