From Max come this NYTimes article (free NYTimes registration required) about the secrecy surrounding the fourth Harry Potter book. I’ve preordered my copy from Amazon.com, but I doubt it will arrive on (or even soon after) the July 8th release date since they’ve been so inudated with advance orders. I’m hoping that the public library here will work the book into their summer reading program.

BTW, Max just got a Palm IIIxe! Now we can trade Palm tips and he can read my site using Avantgo.
