I don't really care about the physical book, I'm really curious when subscribers are going to get the pdf?
As soon as their copy ships.
That should be in the next few days.
I have yet to receive an e-mail, which is leaving me a little confused. I'm a subscriber, the book is available on the product page...I am a [new] subscriber, granted, but still.Just confused. Should I have an e-mail or shouldn't I?

To clarify: when the product is available on the product page, that means it's in our warehouse and in inventory. That does not necessarily mean that other people already have it in their hands.
If you are subscribed and do not yet have your "shipping soon" email, contact customer service.
A somewhat unrelated question:
How long after the ultimate magic is released will the PRD be updated with it's material? Does anyone remember how much it took when APG came out?

My guess is: several months after Bestiary 2 material gets added to the PRD.
Actually, that might not be true. It wouldn't surprise me if both UM and B2 are added late August once they've finished all the GenCon chaos.
Or...you know...they might never get added.

I'm sorry, did you want to log into the WotC forums to make that statement? They're the ones who released dozens of books with zero Open Content. Paizo's the ones who actually ADD to the collective game and not just the company's bottom line.
(And the Product Identity and Open Content declarations from Ultimate Magic are identical to the ones in the Core Rulebook, at least at a simple glance.)

James Jacobs has said he's been wanting to get Bestiary 2 content into the PRD for a while now. It's just they've been extra busy with things like shipping Ultimate Combat in time for GenCon so adding to the PRD ends up a low priority task.

Yay!
Has he said any such thing about other books?

Not that I am aware of, but they haven't even come out yet. :P
I would assume that they will eventually add everything in the Core line to the PRD. Especially since they will show up on other websites sooner than later. And it makes it so there is no excuse not to reference them in APs, although I know some people would prefer "Core only".
I for one think that anything online at the PRD should be fair game for APs. But that's getting into another discussion.

My understanding (which may be incomplete or incorrect, I may not be in the loop on this, it's outside my bailiwick), is that we have every intention of having all of our open content on the PRD.
It's a manpower issue. Getting it up there is labor intensive.

Do you know if they are going to keep all the various books in seperate sections (kind of like how the core book, APG, Bestiary, and Gamemastery Guide are now) or will eventually merge everything into consolidated sections (like having all the spells and feats from all the books consolidated in a single spells page and a feats page, respectively)?

At this point, you know everything I do about it.
