| From Hordelings:
Yes, you can select text and copy it Yes, printing is not locked I’m impressed, and not a little surprised by it. There is a watermark which isn’t nearly as subtle or hidden as I expected (though I imagine there’s a more hidden one, as well).

| Well, it was never supposed to be free. It was supposed to cost "a nominal fee."
Also... None of my 4e books have a code on them that I can find for this purpose. Something tells me the feature isn't ready yet and that future products will be more likely to support it. | |

what happened to those that purchased the books to getting a free online version?!?! Same thing that happens to most speculations. It never materialized because it wasn't real.
