In this age of instant everything, e-books are growing in popularity because they can be ordered instantly to your reader.  What if you want a paperback book, though?  Well, instant gratification exists for you, too.  Once, you had to order the book, which the Print on Demand service would quickly print and pop into the mail for you.  It’d arrive within a few days, saving significantly on storage costs, etc.  But three days isn’t exactly instant enough.

Enter the Espresso Book Machine coming soon to a book store, café,or laundromat near you!  Choose a book from the hundreds (thousands? millions?) stored in the data-base, from self-published books and public domain classics, to those from future looking publishers, push a button, and voilá, instant paperback book.  Your book, printed to order, in minutes.
