Probably about five years ago I talked with Jim Payne (of Singsong records) and Don Walsh in Newfoundland. They were working on a CD ROM of the Peacock that would include the full text of all three volumes plus clips from the field recordings. They were well into digitizing it all then, but I haven't spoken with either of them since. If you're comfortable with CD ROm format, it might be worth waiting a couple of years before spending heavily on the Peacock.
