Great request.  One of the heights of publishing history was the release
of the Cantos in paperback.  I would like to add a request for the
Cantos in a searchable, secure e-book format.  I would be ever in the
debt of New Directions if I could read them on my Pocket PC, which is
always with me.  And I would pay the same price for it as I do for the
printed version.
