Disappointed it's explicitly not for download, but it's still excellent to be able to have access to all of these.

If you're reading it "on line" you've already downloaded it.

These books show more than anything else why Feynman is so revered among physicists as a teacher. An introductory course in physics, simple yet demanding, and shot through with Feynman's unique approach and personality.

Yeah, but you can't put it easily on your tablet and read it offline while sitting in the park ;-) Still liking it a lot.

Hopefully some talented soul will write a script to convert these HTML files into mobie, epub and PDF.

Wow - this is awesome. Anybody interested in helping me map out a dependency graph of the concepts in the Feynman Lectures?
