Use an open format and learn to love the bomb?

Districts probably aren't going to care, as they are looking for a cheaper way to stay current. I recognize the prices are not as good as they should be, but realize the logistics are removed from the situation. The monster of having to manage all those books goes away with a keypress, but lands them squarely on a treadmill with the publishers controlling the dial.

Open school books? Maybe teachers will collaborate and make their own material? There's a lot of room in there...
