Does anyone have an English translation of Einstein's 1906 paper "The Principle of Conservation of Motion of the Center of Gravity and the Inertia of Energy"? A copy would be greatly appreciated.

Nope, that's the 1905 one. He elaborated on the topic in a 1906 paper.
 
Awesome, thanks a lot.
 
It's from the Collected Papers of Albert Einstein, vol. 2.
