Is your new book available for pre-order? Tell your wife I'm quite willing to plonk down the $$ now and wait for it's
publication. :o)

FWIW, there are a couple of technical bookstores I subscribe to[*] that do this sort of thing as part of their regular
business. I.e. they release "beta" or "early access" electronic copies and then you re-download as new versions arrive
(e.g. final "printing", or typo-corrections, etc).

Are you going to release an electronic version?

cheers,

[*] http://www.manning.com See "MEAP"
http://pragprog.com See http://pragprog.com/categories/new for examples of their "beta" books.
etc...
BTW, both of the above sites are always asking for authors..., e.g. http://pragprog.com/write-for-us
