New edition of Infinite Jest

Back Bay Books is releasing a 10th anniversary addition of David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest this November. An online acquaintence noted that it's listed as 1104 pages, 25 pages longer than the original edition. Are we getting a new introduction by DFW? For a DFW nerd like me, that's a big deal. (thx, matt b. and mark b.)

since you've lived in the boston metro area all of your life, you most definitely have to read it.

wow, jbg, how have you resisted so long? i can't help but wonder whether you'll be comforted or infuriated by dfw's version of the ocd rant.
