Thanks folks. I should have checked, I know, I'm a moron. I
haven't ordered audiobooks in the past for the others. And yes, I'm
probably too old to be such a fan. I do really want it *at release*
so I'll hold my breath for the bookshare release - who cares if there
are some scanning errors. I've considered purchasing the hardcover
and scanning it myself but that's 800 pages of my flatbed getting mad
at me. Bah to that.
Though that is the lazy way out.
I couldn't possibly pay attention to that much braille, I suck at braille.
Which means I suck at life.
Bah humbug!

Hi Jeanette,
Audiobooks are often more expensive than the print versions,
especially long ones like Harry Potter books. And CDs or cassettes
are more expensive than online audiobooks.
If you want electronic braille, Bookshare typically scans the
Harry Potter books within hours of release. The only drawback is
that there are often scanning errors. National Braille Press will
release a braille version that will be available online at noon
EDT on Saturday. It normally costs $34.95, but until Saturday it's
available for $18.89. This version will be available through
Web-Braille within days after that. If you want the NBP version,
go to www.nbp.org <http://www.nbp.org/> and search for hallows.
HTH,
Anna
