As I don't have any 'i' things, I didn't think that Blurb's ebooks would be much use to me but I figured that $1.99 wasn't too much of an investment to find out. The download was a bit confusing - it took me a while to find out where Blurb had stored the epub file on my computer. Loading that into the Ebook reader in Firefox wasn't promising - the text was badly formatted and some was missing, but all of the images displayed OK. Loading the file into Calibre was a different story - the book displays just fine, although the photos could have been a bit larger. Certainly well worth the $1.99.
