    IEE 17th edition (Amended) in .pdf format and/or iphone/ipad app?

    Does anyone know if these exist. If they do, where to get, and how much do they cost? If they dont, when can we see them available. It would be great just to whip the iphone out of the pocket to check a regulation instead of hogging a large book around. Thanks.
