I asked about the progress on the Chapter H Pocketbook (but didn't ask anything about the eRB) and received this MMP reply on FB...

MY UNDERSTANDING IS that we're waiting for it, the pocket rulebook, and pocket charts to all be ready at the same time. The rulebook will have errata integrated into the text. Chapter H WILL NOT have the errata integrated into the text (a whole lotta reasons why at this time). They are all being looked at/proofed now.

WRT the eRulebook, the pocket versions and eRulebook are all going to be from the same source, so the eRulebook will be ready at the same time as the print (pocket print that is) versions.

We think its "real soon now". Its all in proofing/link-checking/etc.
Reading between the lines...

So it sounds like Chapter H pocketbook will just be a book version of what's available now (so no updated Italians that are coming, but might included updated French?)

A new version of the the Pocket RB will have errata included, as will the eRulebook, which they are both close.

Very exciting news!
As for chapter H, the errata is not massive and I don't really see what updated French notes would be.

New French chapter h would also have the new font and new counter art, I think.

Does anyone know if this e-version will be pdf, html, etc? I hope not pdf, because it does not scale well and pdf documents are very difficult to read (for me) on tablets, etc. With html and I guess other formats you can scale the text to make it easier to read on your particular device.

I think you mean PDFs don’t flow well, they scale great.

What is the point of doing ChH pocket book if it does not get the errata and vehicles from all the modules incorporated , oh yes MMP getting on the “ they will buy it if it has ASL written on it” Come on guys it should be complete, not half arsed as the pocket rule book was in 2015!

As Scott notes, the eRB text scales well; I find it perfectly readable on an iPhone. The pocket Chapter H (and the eRB) will now have errata incorporated, as well.

Enjoying your "new to you" Sony Walkman?
When I eventually did get one, the earphones hurt my ears, and the sound was tinny. Glad I didn't spend top (or even middling) dollar for one.
