Nice :-) Looking forward to it.

Will it include examples for the Netduino Plus? (seeing as thats what is pictured on the front cover)

Is there a contents page preview we can see?


There's a chapter in there on networking (for Netduino Plus). The remaining samples will work on either Netduino or Netduino Plus.

The book starts with installing Visual C# Express and walks you through blinking LEDs, shields, reading sensors, creating Internet-connected devices, etc. It's written so that beginners can get up and running...but also so that experienced programmers can quickly apply their C# skills to electronics. It is truly a "getting started" book.

Cuno's book (Getting Started with the Internet of Things) takes things to the next level, diving deep into Internet sensor networks and Pachube with Netduino Plus.

So why not use the O'Reilly Rough Cuts approach ? My experience (so far) with Cuno Pfister's book is very pleasant. Reading as it grows is an interesting idea Take it only as an opinion ... (Bought and received an e-mail saying Delivery estimate: September 16, 2011 - October 6, 2011) meaning Xmas ? :lol: hoping not so long ;)

Hi Mark,

Is there a Kindle version ?

Kindle version is now live; pre-ordered books should be shipping out in the next few days.

Thanks for your enthusiasm!

Chris
