Couldn't agree more. It's an important feature for authors that need to release their work on a given schedule. That said, with current organization; it's not going to happen; don't hold your breath; mobile is their priority and I'm surprised there is no mobile app out yet.. but that's the priority unfortunately, for serious authors right now.

Keep in mind, the focus is signing up more users ASAP. And rightly so, and the plan is mobile. I have no idea what that will look like, as far as affecting the landscape, but I think it points to specialized authoring tools, as separate than the consumption platform itself.

So that makes sense to me, and makes for a bigger audience, in theory, if all goes well...
