any feats that act like the 3.x sorc, allowing wizzies to spon cast any spell in spellbook?
New SMage at wills, and new powers for lvling those up? (i.e. the ranger and fighter and Wlord all got new stuffs...) The new aegis sounds really neat, TPing enemies is much better IMO than you TPing to them....
new illusion and summon powers... yum yum 
I can't believe you already have it... You make me jealous.
You can do a few new things with spellbooks, but not to the extent that you mentioned. There's one new Swordmage at-will intended for the Ensnarement Aegis (or so I think--there's a typo in the book here which suggests "Stalker's Strike" for this build, but the only new at-will is "Luring Strike.")

Thanks!
There's a number of feats tailored for bards of a particular race, similar to what you saw in Martial Power.
Is there one for eladrin? If so, what's the gist of it?
There's also an epic tier feat that grants the bard two multi-class feats
So you spend one feat slot and get two feats?
and a bardic multi-class feat that grants the Bardic Training class feature, which seems more useful than Ritual Caster for those who don't get it from their class.
Now that's pretty nice. Is it a limited version of it or a paragon multiclassing feat or is it just a regular multiclassing feat that gives you the full class feature?

Familiars please. How many are we talking about in the book?
Twelve, including the standard cats/bats/rats and a few more exotic ones like Imps and Dragonlings.

OK, questions:
1) Do the new bard powers that use a bow still use Cha for attack/damage rolls, or do they use Dex? Do any of the new bard powers use any abilities other than Cha/Int/Con?
2) Is Life Singer a PP for bards multiclassed into a primal class? Do any of the other bard PPs have multiclassing as prerequisites?
3) Does the sorcerer's Storm Magic use Dex as the secondary attribute, like we already know Cosmic Magic uses Str? Does any of the new sorcerer stuff use any ability other than Cha/Str/Dex?
4) Is there anything like the old 3rd edition 'hideous blow' for warlocks? Or like 4th edition sorcerers' 'arcane blade channeling'? Anything at all that makes warlocks a viable melee class?
5) Why does Japan keep getting D&D books weeks before the rest of the world? (I'm not really expecting you to answer this one. :P )
1) Cha. Many Prescience powers also rely upon Wis.
2) No to both.
3) Yes, it uses Dex. It's still those three stats.
4) No, not really.
5) Because the yakuza are hardcore D&D players, and WotC is afraid of them.

What secondary ability do Aegis of Ensnarement swordmages use? Thanks in advance!
Btw Japan gets book earlier because local laws allow amazon.ja to realise the books earlier.
Con.

There's one for Eladrin and gnomes that grants bonuses to charm powers and to the Bluff and Diplomacy skills.
Yes, basically two feats for the price of one.
It's not a paragon M/C feat--you can take it at 1st level if you want. The text says you gain the feature, so I assume it isn't limited.

Ooh that sounds nice. My backup bard is going to be an eladrin, so I might have to grab this feat. What's it called?

As is this.

Is the Bonded Summoner a paragon path that specialize into summoning ? Can you give us a hint of what it looks like ? (I'd need it for this weekend if it were available)
Some paragon/tier feats involving summoning ?
Thanks in advance if you can answer that.
