Saw this today while thumbing around on Amazon.  Dosen't come out till July 2011, but they are taking pre-orders.  Looks like it could be a pretty decent addition to the coffee table or bookshelf.

I ordered one last christmas, was expecting it last month.  Just received an email from amazon that they are trying to locate a copy for me.  They must be waiting for 10,000 orders or something before they print a run.  I would be frustrated, but knowing what it is like waiting for ducati stuff, I have grown a lot of patience.  There's pretty much no way that I've found to actually contact a live person to find out what's going on.  On the account manager, it just gives you the option to cancel the order.  Anyone else have the same experience?
I met this girl named Virginia.  She said "nice bike, you can call me Virgin for short, but not for long"

Should have used a classic Monster for the cover.

From the review:

And I have to say, the original Monsters are meaner, leaner and cooler looking than latest iteration, which appears to me to be a bit like a smiley-face Dove bar eating, Starbucks-drinking iPhone version of the original Monstah.

It's been published. Just order it from the publisher.

Yeah but it's cheaper on Amazon UK.  £18.39 compared to £30 from the publisher.
