UPDATE! HARRY POTTER 7 IS ONLINE. MAYBE.

Several sources are saying that an authentic copy of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" has hit the internet.  Someone, maybe a hand model, has photographed every page of the much anticipated book and posted it on several torrent sites, notably Pirate Bay (torrent for that here).  It's not known who the source is or even if the book is truly genuine, but one clue that author JK Rowling gave was that "scar" would be the last word in the book.  She later said it was changed to be one of the last words, and this copy of the book does have "scar" in the second to last sentence, the eleventh to last word.  The book may be an extremely well put-together fake or it may be real, all that's known for sure is that this is the nerdiest thing I've ever posted.  Now I just need someone to shove me in a locker and steal my inhaler and my day will be complete.

UPDATE – the Pirate Bay link is dead, MEGAUPLOAD link here and here 

UNSEXY NEW UPDATE – now the megaupload link is dead, I'm searching for a new torrent now.  feel free to send a link to the email if you have it.
