No, but there are not nearly enough of them. It seems that it should be easy to
write a program to let Fritz or Shredder spend 2 minutes on each node where
there is a choice starting from the beginning of the tree and automatically put
in an evaluation at the Chessbase factory before shipping the Powerbook. This
could be continously done 24 hours a day and the ChessBase people could sell the
books based on 2 things that are updated: new GM lines and new evaluations
deeper in the book. So they could advertise LATEST BOOK UP TO DATE  AS OF JUNE
2005 and ALL move nodes annotated to 20 ply The next year they could advertise
all move nodes annotated to 25 ply and so on.
