Sample Chapter via iTunes Store

I just downloaded a copy of Chapter 1 ("Text") from The Python
Standard Library By Example straight to my iPod Touch. It is a
different chapter than is available from the Addison-Wesley page I
mentioned here previously. The 317 pages in the sample include the
table of contents and index along with the full text of chapter 1,
covering the string, textwrap, re, and difflib modules.

It's going to take me a while to get used to seeing it next to some of these other names on the shelf.
