| | |  Videos of JKR & Jim Dale
A video of J.K.Rowling signing the first author-signed copy of the US ' Half-Blood Prince' can now been seen here.
Additionally, a video of Jim Dale on the Today show, yesterday, can also be viewed here. Jim says that he thinks ' Half-Blood Prince' is the best book yet. He also mentions that the ending is rather like a cliff-hanger.

You can see the Title picture in that JK Rowling one. Looks like a book with a hole in it...Now what book do we know has a hole in it? Hmm...

Haha I really was going to bed... 
The page where JK signs on the US book. There's a Title illustration there. Could be that Potions book from the UK adult cover or Riddle's diary....Hmm

But the potions book ( http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/...mage_id=797has) no hole in it ... The hole looks square-like to me. So not like a fang-shaped hole.
On second thoughts, there is a square toward the top.

Yeah! I have seen the video another time..I really don't know if it just a hole or it's a paniting on the book besides there are some thing that coming from this Goblet and getting in the book or may be the opposite..but if it was a hole it could be Riddle's one..The hole is not very square and also not very round..But what the Diary can do in this book6???

Both books (In the book and the potion book) have a square near the top and a triangle on the top corner. I think it's the same book.

When I reviewd them again...I see your point...but this square is very obvious than the one in the Potion book. It's different...But I believe it's the Potion book because I think that the Diary doesn't have a role in this book...It's aleardy had been damaged and look at book 2 Chapter17 on the US edition..You will see some differences between the Diary pic and this book

I admit, I haven't watched the videos, but I like the discussion on the book covers  ! I'm guessing it may be Snape's Potions book. Harry, for the most part, has all new stuff. I also take this from the comments: Quote:
He also mentions that the ending is rather like a cliff-hanger.
 , but did we expect any less?

It's not the book cover. There's an illustration of a book on the inside of the book, on the title page, in the video as JK signs it.

I saw Jim Dale on the Today show and I'm so hyped about the book since he said it's a cliffhanger in the end! J.K. usually doesn't leave us hanging on a lot of things but this time...well...we'll see!
like only 3 days now! more like 2 though....*faints*

What I may have wrongly described as a "hole" may just be the square like box where the title of a book is kept. It looks as though the thing standing next to it is a potion of some kind. So I do think it is the potions book.

WOW!!! All she did was sign, then they left, well that was short i thought she would actually say someting. First the book goes into a little see throw case then a huge chest thing. With all that pretection i'm surprised they even had a crane put the book on the ship. Then put into a special place on the ship, who do you think is going to steal it??????? Then, basically, the chest was carried out by what it seemed to be coriographed (sp) Doorman with their spins and red outfits. So where's it going...?
