I guess I don't feel quite as strong about it as some others, but I was rather perplexed when I got through the ordering process for the boxed version without seeing any option to add a printed manual. I was certainly hopeing to order one (I can only focus on a PDF on the computer screen for a short while before the eyes and mind go blurry), and I guess I am little upset at looking at two separate shipping charges. I had presumed part of the delay in the boxed version was getting the manual printed, and sort of wonder why Eovia just didn't delay the box shipping (at least for those of us who also wanted to order a printed manual) a bit longer and give people the option of ordering it. (However, I do appreciate Charles' consideration that the cost was reduced accordingly.) rj
