Don,

NLS hasn't figured out the subscription bit yet.  Nor have they figured out
how to use RSS yet.  Some of the regional library systems are doing some
quite interesting things with subscriptions and RSS.  So, the short answer
to your question: no.

Here is a link to Flash Newsletter from NLS which will keep you up to
speed on all of the developments in digital books and machines:

I have a picture of the NLS prototype for the basic player and book,
but I don't want to attach it here.  Let me know off list if you'd like
a copy, and I'll email the .jpg image.
