Technology and the Supply Side of Physical Fiction

I've been looking into the physical costs of printing books and magazines, and I've found some neat stuff.

Mag Cloud- an hp service to print glossy on-demand physical magazines for the "long tail" at 20 cents a page. Basically a magazine version of the well known and apparently generally groovy print on demand book service Lulu.

The Espresso Book Machine- which can crank out a paperback book in about 4 minutes.

If any of you guys know anything more about machines that can print and bind books and/or magazines, I would love to hear about it!
