I uploaded and ordered my first book November 8th and had a couple copies drop-shipped to a friend. The friend got her copies on Nov. 12 and I got mine a day later. Amazing if you think about it and almost as fast as Amazon for ordering books. And to think - I not only ordered but also had PRINTED said book. They are now offering the option that if you buy their ISBN (not the best way to go if you plan on doing more than one book - might as well buy your own block of ISBN numbers and run your POD book thru Ingram's Lightinsource) they also will put your book thru Google Print. This all means they really do take the hassle out of publishing and semi-promoting books. I'd recommend them highly although it does take considerable time to get things just right so they print properly. I’ve tried lulu and I’ve got to say they’re getting their act together.
