Like all other human things, if you find any errata or suggestions for the book please send us your comments to info@coldbox.org.  Also, please note that I am starting already on the next version of the book and our other two books, so get ready for more fun!

    Keep up informed about availability via Amazon in the UK. A 50% premium on the book price to cover shipping makes the book hard to justify outside of the US. :-)
  2. David Boyer Says:
    Agreed, I'd love to know if / when it'll be available from UK sites like Amazon to avoid the shipping cost. The cheaper it is, the easier to convince the boss ;)

    Are there any plans for a PDF / electronic version?
  4. Luis Majano Says:
    Kindle version is available.

    The UK and international distribution takes about 4-8 weeks. So it will get there eventually. For now, our e-store is available.

    Luis,

    Is the color version coming soon as well?

    Thank you,
    Gabriel

    The color version will be delayed for a while as the pricing on it is really expensive as of now. I am looking for alternatives, I might post it just in case somebody would like to purchase it, but as of now it would be above $100 for a copy as it is 412 pages in full color.
  7. Gabriel Says:
    Wow. That is significant.

    Just placed my order about a half hour ago. I figured color was just a luxury and I need to save my pennies. Especially with a 3.0 version in the works and two mystery books as possibilities. :-)

    hmmm...when will the book on ColdBox 3.0 come out? I'm a bit wary of buying a book on ColdBox 2.6.3 with 3.0 on the horizon. Specially with so many changes coming in the new version.
  9. LUis Majano Says:
    @tony

    The 3.0 version of the book won't be available for at least a year. Not until everything is stable and I can write documentation for it. So don't expect and update of the book until maybe this time in 2010.

    Same here, was about to buy but the cost of shipping to the UK is far to high that's if I want the book this side of 2009! There seems to be a bunch of us from the UK that want to buy could you not find a cheaper service that's seems a tad high @ $40 for standard shipping is the book that heavy?
  11. Luis Majano Says:
    Yep. The distribution should get there soon enough, they have said 4-6 weeks from release date (last week). So I will keep pinging them to see when it goes to the UK stores.

    Will you be putting this on O'Reilly Safari Books?

    Thanks
  13. glyn jackson Says:
    What sort of timeframe are we looking at before its in the Amazon uk store?
  14. Tony Garcia Says:
    @Luis,
    Thanks for the info. I just ordered my copy.
  15. Stewart McGuire Says:
    I also would like to see it on O'Reilly's Safari Bookshelf as I have a subscription there!

    The book version has compliancy with 3.0 in several aspects. We will begin updating in the coming months, but have no set schedule as of now.
