Eastern Standard Tribe

Sticking with SF then. Eastern Standard Tribe is the first book that I’ve ever read digitally, since it’s published as a download as well as in dead tree format.
I’m not sure about the whys and wherefores of this. Microsoft gave away a load of books during the last six months of last year, all of which I dutifully downloaded (aside from the first one which I missed). But now I have a Tungsten E, I can’t read any of those books on my palmtop.
But getting back to the book – I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it. I notice on Amazon that it runs to 224 printed pages, and it does feel quite a short novel. But it painted an interesting and believable picture of a very near future, intellectual property, and industrial espionage.
