One of the ways I keep in touch with the latest books (to add them to my Books page) is to search Amazon.com / Books with "SharePoint" and then specify "By Publication Date"

This is good way to quickly become aware of books that aren't published yet and also to see which books have been delayed.

What rarely happens is that the date of a book moves up. I submitted mine before the original deadline for submission and a few weeks later this was reflected in the Availability date that Amazon US was quoting (up from November 7th to October 20th).

Another book that I see today has been moved up (easy to see because the original date was later than that of my book) was one of the two Workflow books that are due out in the Fall.

The thing though that struck me was that the new date of that book (Professional SharePoint Workflow Programming (Wiley - Shahram Khosravi)) is now identical to that of the other book (Professional Workflow Design Patterns for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (Wrox - John Holliday)) due on October the 6th.

Coincidence ? Somehow I doubt it!
