the trick is probably take the ebook but listen to my last email:
 
i can't take or have a laptop with me and at the last alt.net group someone with a kindle
found it to be very bad for technical books (where you have to flip back and forth) hence
first they have to improve upon the kndle

Think of taking advantage of this offer as a kind of mental puzzle for developers -- you apparently had to *really* want to take advantage of it and have the perseverance to figure out the trick to redeeming the code :)

Yes, I did call and confirm for Ebook only.
It's still worth the purchase.  It's almost 5 stars rating on Amazon!
I have it loaded on my Itouch with Goodreader for my mobile reading.
The pdf file is about 11M of content.  Just finished my 1st chap and still have 26 more chapters to go. :)
Thanks Steve.

Steve - discount code is not valid on real book and mortar - it says it is invalid

Even for an NHibernate committer like myself, there is still a desire to keep a watchful eye on the competition -- and in the .NET ORM space, that competition is (of course) Entity Framework.

Trying to keeping an eye on all the technologies coming out of Microsoft can often seem like a losing battle, but in this case there is at least an offer that can make it just about dirt-cheap to catch up in this one area:

O'Reilly Books' "Deal of the Day" today is Programming Entity Framework, Second Edition (and as we all know, the number "2" in Microsoft-speak is pronounced "four" so this book covers EF4).

Its being offered for just $9.99 and at that price this book is just about too good to pass up if you have been looking for a way to ramp up on just WTF the Entity Framework is all about.

I'm still pretty certain that after evaluating EF4 the sane developers among us will return to leveraging the power of a more mature ORM (like NHibernate!), but for a mere $10 you can at least use this offer to bulk up on competitive knowledge of what the 'other' ORM is up to.
