Default Which type of book does everyone want?

i was wondering what type of book everyone wants 2+2 to publish next.

1)NL holdem beginner's book, ok GSIHE is good but the NL section is pretty short.
2)STT NL holdem book, most people i know play these in their home games and most of my friends play this type exclusively.

any others??

seems like all the action these days is in no-limit, either cash, SNG, MTT.... and there are lots of good limit books.

miller is coming out with new no-limit book. harrington 3??? (harrington 1/2 are great, but focus more on very big tournaments) hopefully ciaffone too... phil gordon another
book (although i'm thinking it's too soon)

i'd like see more on the value of cards when there are 2,3,4,....8,9, 10 people left, because there's a huge difference, although many people just call it generically "short-handed"

I would love a book (or DVD would be even better) of Daniel Negreanu’s inner thoughts when he’s talking someone up to get information on their hand. Similar to Final Table Poker, but specifically about gaining information. He amazes me.

In depth on the process of reading hands

I want an Ed Miller "Small-Stakes Omaha Hi-Lo" book.

I'd also love a book that covered the basics of less common poker variants for which there is little or no existing literature: Triple draw, Razz, Pineapple, Guts, Chinese Poker, etc.

Triple draw is covered in SS 2 and razz is in SS 1, but I get where you are coming from. There is definitely a relative lack of good books available on games other than hold 'em in general. I second the idea of a SS Omaha h/l book.

I know about Negreanu's Triple draw article in SS 2, but I don't remember a Razz section in SS 1 -- the only thing on Razz I've seen is in Sklansky on Poker, and it assumes you have a basic knowledge of the game already.

NL cash games (Ed's new book should cover this)
NL STTs (Are HOH 1,2 & 3 useful for these? STTs are tournaments, after all.)
NL 6-Max (Hopefully Ed's new book will have a detailed section on this, but that's probably just wishful thinking)
NL Heads Up (Who could possibly write this book and do it justice? Could one even BE written?)

If I had to pick one from this list, personally I'd pick NL 6-Max. NL STTs would probably sell better, though.
