New Kiseido title for SmartGo Books.

[jts]

Laudano sempre gli uomini, ma non sempre ragionevolmente, gli antichi tempi, e gli presenti accusano: ed in modo sono delle cose passate partigiani, che non solamente celebrano quelle etadi che da loro sono state, per la memoria che ne hanno lasciata gli scrittori, conosciute; ma quelle ancora che, sendo già vecchi, si ricordano nella loro giovanezza avere vedute.

You might also point the finger at the US Postal Service. A few years ago they dramatically increased the shipping rates for international parcels. Overnight the cost of a book increased by 30-50%. Until then I used to order interesting books as a way of pointing publishers in directions that I thought were interesting (i.e. more higher-level books). After that the price became prohibitive, and I haven't ordered a go book by mail for quite some time.

Yep, it's made a big difference in what I buy. Not just go books, but anything from the US.
