Yeah I'm sold also. But should I get the Kindle version or the good old paper version? Totally off topic but I've found code formatting in Kindle books is often a half-hearted effort at best, like they've copied and pasted it without taking the time to look at the end product. (That's my rant over)

There's a lot of code examples, so hard copy. I loathe the idea of digital books personally, I spend too much time with the electronic devices in my life as is.

LOL, I quite like Kindle for novels etc, but yeah I've made the mistake of buying programming titles for the Kindle previously and the code has been very hard going.
