You have expressed a great deal of enthusiasm for TW as an ebook 
replacement and now as an app replacement. I'm learning app programming 
now, and can vouch that it's ridiculously complicated. 

But I wonder how most publishers would view TW in terms of DRM and IP 
protection. There really isn't much in the way of data protection in TW. 
The read-only modes aren't really modes at all and can be quickly removed. 
There's encryption, but a password could just be passed along with the base 
TW.

Of course not all publishers are obsessed with DRM, especially if the 
material is going to change rapidly. O'Reilly, for instance, doesn't lock 
down their epublications.
