Hey guys/gals,
Just thought I'd throw this out for anyone who's interested. I found an awesome book by an indie-author that I really enjoy.
It's not related to Ender at all, but I can't help but think the story was inspired by the book we love so much.
He just dropped the price on it to $.99 for Kindle/Nook. Hah, I purchased the hardback for $14 back in December. =]
Hit up the link for more details:
KINDLE/NOOK BOOK: Psion Beta (price drop to $.99) - Slickdeals.net
And let me know if you have any questions, I'm on my second read =]
Hmm I love ender i may have to try that

You really should. The reviews on Amazon are impeccable. I think the only non-5 stars came from when the book was entered in an Amazon contest, and they only got to read part of the first chapter.
It really is a book that is hard to put down.
Ill get it then thanks

NP, enjoy it!
Just saw this on SD and bought it. Can't wait to read it.
Just bought it because of this thread. I love SciFi and even if I don't like it was only a dollar.

It's a great read, and it definitely has some re-readability mojo.
Enjoying it so far.

It's great isn't it?
Kind of frustrating that books like that have to be self-published, it's a really great story.
If you hop on over to the slickdeals.net thread I posted, the author actually came and found us. He mentions a couple things about releasing the next book.
I might buy a real copy just to support him haha.
Sent from my bathroom, with toilet paper.
Excellent book!
Wish he'd hurry up with the sequal on kindle
It's like with Paul D. Harrington's Lightspeed series, although the second one came out in 2009 Amazon are only showing it as a second hand paperback for $32!

Excellent! Cheers for that
Big Ender's Game fan but short on cash this month so I'll have to wait until then to give this a shot. Looks good though!
Surely there is a universal truth now on which case you have to go with or a narrowed down list. I also want a case that doesn't scratch the phone itself. I was reading that was a problem on few of the cases. Recommendations?

I don't really want a booklet case... They don't really offer any protection from the looks of it.

i would like something like that but with a design..
I bugged Seidio about a possible Nexus 10 case, and was informed they don't have any plans. They suggested sending an email to [email protected] to request it. You should check out their iPad/Nexus7 cases and if you think its something you like, send an email too.
https://twitter.com/seidioseidio/status/266203118155485184
Case itself can be seen here:

http://www.seidioonline.com/apple-ipad-2-3rd-4th-gen-active-case-garnet-red-p/csk5ipd2-gr.htm
It's pretty high quality stuff. Love the one I had for my Kindle Fire.
Email sent!
Here is a short templatefor the other:

Hello Seidio Team,
when can I order from you a Cover for the new Nexus 10?
Like these amazing cover for the Nexus 7:
ACTIVE® with Multi-Purpose Cover
http://www.seidioonline.com/asus-google-nexus-7-active-case-black-p/bd2-csk3asn7-bk.htm
I would appreciate about a positive feedback!
Thanks & Regards,

***********************************************************************************************************
I'd remove the word "until" that implies you're asking for an end date, after which you can no longer buy it.
Currently that's an impossible situation since its not yet in existence

Good Idea
I will inform about the availability soon as a new feedback comes!
They responded on twitter saying that no decision has yet to be made.
I have it for the 7. Its a perfect case I hope they make one for the 10.

Doesn't surprise me... Judging from the lack of threads on this forum regarding the nexus 10 its probably not a huge seller.

I've been waiting for this to turn up for ages and I finally got my hands on the Otterbox Defender last night. It really does add some weight and bulk to the phone but of course offers the protection a lot of people are looking for. I personally like the look of the grey case but the wait for that is still about a month I believe.

Any questions or feedback are more than welcome
Any word on the commuter?

Good review but the Defender is way to bulky for me and the screen cover has too much glare. Which is why I want the Commuter, any idea when you can review it?

I personally prefer the commuter, I will be reviewing it as soon as it arrives. I didn't expect to the defender till mid December so I can't say when I'll get my commuter unfortunately.
With a case like the Defender I would probably drop my phone on purpose just so I can feel good about walking around with a case that big.

I did it all the time with my iPhone 4. Lol. I'd drop it on the concrete floor at work from eye level (I'm 6'4" ) because people wouldn't believe the case was that good, then THEY were the ones that would freak when I let it go haha

Yeah some of the Youtube videos of drop tests are scary to watch the first time, proves the case does it job though I guess.
I have been tempted to do my own drop tests on video but at the same time I'm too scared it will break lol

I have for sale a gently used Seidio active black color. Used it for about 3 weeks and decided the otterbox commuter was better for my needs. I don't have the original package.
