Bated, damnit
Yes, Morbus Iff, it's "bated breath" not "baited breath". That's my pet peeve #38 if anyone is counting.
A good way to remember this is "abated" as in beat down, lessen, and reduce.

Super-size it, please
I hesitate to say anything due to conflict of interest, but c'mon, a 344 page "missing manual" for the iPod? That strikes me as the literary equivalent of a Double Big Mac. I haven't seen a copy, but it has gotta have at least 200 pages of filler.
What's next? One hundred pages on the Pro Mouse?
