Fire and Fury - electronic formats

If you are wanting the electronic format (kindle or from audible.com) it looks like amazon is not going to have it available tomorrow. I checked with both figuring I would buy the one that was available. No luck. I called up the street to Barnes and Noble and they are expecting the books in tomorrow. I have a hold on one of them. I haven't bought a book from B&N in years.

I'll wait until then. I got a B&N gift card as an Xmas gift and, since the gift card is only for enough to buy one eBook, I have "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump" targeted for that one.

On the order portion it still listed the old date but on the description when you select that format, it did say that it would be released at 9 am (ET) on Friday.

I.e., it says -

This item will be released on January 5th at 9:00 A.M. Eastern

It's only a few days, so I'll be patient.

This item will be released on January 5th at 9:00 A.M. Eastern is stated in the text, yet the check-out box still has the old date.
