    Yay!  

    It's about time it's online.

    Years ago, I suggested an app that gets updated every year. I'd gladly pay $10 a year to have that info right there on my smartphone or iPad. Hopefully one day we will have that also.

    The app I use is called the online PianoAtlas, available on the App Store. Has a all of the really common brands, unfortunately not all the uncommon brands are present. And the price is right -- free. Check it out.

    I have a couple editions of the Pierce book, downloaded the Online Atlas app, and just paid for the online Pierce website with an annual subscription $12.99j, single use $3.99 or a 28 day usage $8.99.  I think the best investment at this point will be the book for $35 hardcover, which is out of date pretty much immediately. Although I presume the online version will be updated regularly how much need for that seriously is there?  The Online Atlas App doesn't work well much of the time (but it's free).

    I think I'll stick with the book, as long he includes all the info.

    Last time I updated (several years ago) it was missing an entire signature (or whatever you call those sections that get sewn together). It just happened that the first time I used it, the piano I was trying to look up was in THAT missing section. Very embarrassing. Of course he sent out a replacement pronto. How often does THAT happen?
