Have you checked out Green Ronin's Psychic's Handbook? It is an excellent product with a different (and. IMO, much better) feel.

I already got it. So did the player who plays a high-level psion in my epic game. He's ahead of me- I'm reading other stuff right now- he's already updated his character.

Bought it, loved it. It is my favourite game book so far. I can finally get the flexibility out of Astral Construct that I wanted. My Blue (Goblin) Shaper seeks adventure! First time I was happy that the party got obliterated, since this allowed me to make my character on the day I bought the book, which was the first day the book was for sale.
One other thing I like is that the psionic powers are not always the same as the wizard spells they mimic. There are subtle differences in psionic scaling, wizards get to use metamagic feats more often, etc. For instance, Catfall is significantly weaker than Feather Fall. The damage spells often do less damage than their counterparts. So, there is a lot of room for both Psions and Sorcerors, if one wishes.
That said, there are a few typos, as there are in all books ever published. See the thread in the Rules section for the ones caught by enworlders so far.

XPH + The Dreaming Dark = some really cool adventure ideas.

Cool indeed. I'm really liking the Kalashtar. They have some great role-playing potential and their +1 PP per character level is very nice.
Come on June! You'll find me wallowing in Eberronian goodness.

No XPH for me, IMO psionics don't belong in a medieval-fantasy campaign so I don’t allow it in my campaigns and I don’t play one. One of the other DMs does allow them, but it seems just like magic with a different label on it. Still to me it is too Sci-fi in nature, even martial artist “ki” power seems out of place. I guess 21+ years of gaming has me a bit set in my ways…
