Does anyone know why the Reaver eBook was delayed but the print version was released yesterday?

| Ah, I see. An old stuffy and outdated institution is refusing to accept the future. Greed is going to blind them just like it has blinded the music industry. |

| I'm told it was delayed (only by a week fortunately) not because of some diabolical publishing master plan but because there was "a problem with the file." |

Thanks for the update

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
-J.R.R. Tolkien

Awww, why spoil our fun. We need some sort of diabolical entity. 
Besides, I could tell WoTC wasn't on board with those other publishers. I paid $15 bucks for the eBook on Amazon. |

| I never said they weren't diabolical, just that this particular issue does not appear to be a manifestation of diabolism. I am not taking a position on the greater question. |

Might be the case, but being incompetent is never an excuse. I am really waiting for this book, and cant get my hands on it, unless its released as Kindle version :( Previous Sundering books have come out as ebooks at the same time as hardcopy ones. |

As Mr. Byers said, there seems to be a technical issue with the file. A week late is better than never. :) |

Indeed. And it's not necessarily incompetence. Something could have gotten hosed in transit, the file could have gotten infected or corrupt, a server could have melted down and taken the file with it... |

### it amazon. Here it's 00:10 on the 11th of February and I am still waiting for my Reaver. 
Even the stupid website says it's available for download so why am I not getting it?  |
