tl;dr: The Rails Tutorial 2nd edition PDF is out; early access to the 2nd edition screencasts is open; use the code "rt2ndEd" through the end of April to get a 20% discount. Go to http://railstutorial.org/ for more information.
By the way, I finally broke down and got an iPad (way overdue, I know), which finally motivated me to fiddle with the Rails Tutorial PDF fonts. The result (14pt for the main text and ~10pt for tables and code samples) was a bit tricky to achieve, but it looks good on a Kindle and great on an iPad. Someday I may go to the trouble of making ePub and mobi formats as well, but for now the PDF is smokin'.
