Nowhere, that I know of. Occasionally you see it on half.com or from third-party sellers; sometimes, for over $200. (Of which I get nothing, of course).

This comes up particularly now because Penny Arcade linked to the book today. But I probably get a couple of inquiries a week about it (thanks for your interest, Karl, Brady, John…).

The good news is that I hope to have news on its renewed availability in the next few weeks.

Gamers rejoice: you can cancel easily now

Virtual Worlds News reports that an alderman in Illinois tried to cancel his kid’s MMO account, found it too hard, and took it up with the House. And now it’s the law in Illinois that there has to be a way to cancel on the website, with no phone call or snail mail required.

This will likely be a ripple effect, unless companies are going to make Illinois-facing websites and account management. 😉
