| | | Royal Mail is on the ready
Britain’s Royal Mail is planning to rent hundreds of extra trucks and possibly hire more staff in preparation for the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This is due to the number of preorders already in for Deathly Hallows as well as their experience two years ago when more than half a million copies of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince were delivered to one in 50 British homes by the service’s postal workers. Quote:
We’re already planning for the launch,” Royal Mail spokesman James Eadie said Thursday. “We’re talking to retailers about what volumes they expect, and what they expect from us, so that we can put the logistics in place to deliver on the date of issue.
Deathly Hallows is currently listed as the No. 1 book on Amazon.co.uk.

Haha, now that's some unique news. Extra trucks huh? Yeah, I can only imagine... hopefully they'll need LOTS of trucks simply because the book is... o... 2000 pages.
Woot. *getting pumped for the last book even if it's still probably a year away*

Awesome!
Too bad amazon.ca (Canada) isn't even taking orders yet... 
from what I know, I went there and all you can do is get an email notification of it for when you can actually pre-order it..........
