I hear that the Barca-lounger editions can be had for MSRP by August, but that the Recaro edition has been held up due to material sourcing issues.

I'm planning on removing the pages from the book's spine and three-hole punching the pages for binder insertion and, thus, faster page turning, and I also want to shave off the 90 degree corners to make them more aerodynamic. Does anybody have th specs for the book so that I can order a hole punch, scissors, a teflon binder, and some lubrication to keep the pages from sticking together? I plan to speed-read the book once the weather improves. This book won't be a shelf queen!

There is a second bookmark that opens the last 50 pages but they're awaiting publisher approval. It's expected in February of next year.

You guys have officially lost it 
For real ? You only need the fastest color, that is why they have Blaze in the name. You don't see the other colors with any kind of competition racing performance as part of the color name.

Now back OT...
I was wondering if this book came on audio cassette for members of the blind community who haven't moved to CD's yet?

There are special glasses available to purchasers of the book that allow 3d viewing. They are awaiting approval by the AO society. Should be available late summer.

That's too lightweight for me. It makes that 'whispy' sound when I turn the pages. I'm looking for something with a deeper, heavier sound, like a coffee table book has. Does anyone know of coatings I can use to change the sound? Any YouTube videos out there so I hear what the sound is like??

The version of that book detailing the BOSS302R and BOSS302S retails for 3x the cost of the above version, is limited to only 50 copies, and requires a current Librarian's License to purchase.

no way, i read on another forum that a stock GT book did it with a 14-point font, the boss book won't need 16. i bet a 16-point would get you more like 510-grams
