I haven't read this particular "netbook" but I have seen several fan 
fics on FictionAlley called Harry Potter and the Order of the 
Phoenix. Kinda wondered if it was okay for non-JKR writers to use 
*that* title (or PS/SS, COS, POA or GOF) for something JKR didn't 
write. I haven't read any of those fan fics because I want to wait 
for "the real thing" on June 21st. I guess those fan fiction authors 
couldn't wait...
