@ finella: 
@ 'thul: That's interesting 'thul, and a good measure against piracy.
It would mean that if you want to lend your book, you'd have to lend your Kindle too, and there's not many who would do that...
As for my 'tonight, dear friends' business...well, my husband decided he'd like a ride to town in an ambulance yesterday after lunch (after I'd already been all the way in there and back once that morning!) and then we discovered that his pain is likely due to a kidney stone or two. Back home last night after a few hours of morphine and observation and then, after the hour-long and very rough drive back home, he spent most of the night mirroring the cycle that a woman goes through whilst in labour (and I in the husband role doing the bath running, tummy and back rubbing, drink fetching etc...half the time I couldn't help but laugh at his obviously severe pain!
). This all having been said, I have made no progress on CoD. 
Will add this to the main news page as soon as I can (so won't put this in a new thread as it will turn up in due course from 'Mellow the Minstrel') but, in the meantime, here's a link to the Harper Voyager page where there is a competition running to win a signed hardback copy of CoD. All you have to do is send them a dragon.
The deadline is April 20th and the comp is for UK residents only. So, fool-ish, you're not going to get an early release, but you can spend your waiting time creating a dragon, a la Verity-like!
