Yes! A dynamic e-book where corrections are emailed directly to us when detected. That sounds like a winner.

By the way: If it isn't too late, I'd like to post the following review on Amazon of the not-yet-planned book from Wolfgang Breitling:

Title: 10053 reasons to perform a dump in your own house

Author: Wolfgang Brightthing

Review (no stars, posted by Egghead): This book is a complete waste of the 10053 dollars I had to pay for it on Barnes & Noble. The book doesn't cover any of the undocumented features of event 10053, but simply does a step-by-step walkthrough of the self-explanatory, easy-to-read, well-documented event. The author wastes page after page explaining things instead of showing the use of oradebug. I'll never buy that book again
