Hey, I wouldn't wait on O'Rielly's book - check out packt publishing. I purchased five of their Drupal 6 books for less than $12/book. I've learned gobs, and didn't have to pay for shipping or deal with trying to understand outdated documentation (I'm looking at you d.o documentation team...).
They have a module book, drupal javascript, drupal overview, etc...

Many thanks for the tip. Wow, what a great deal ... I think I'll start hording today.
Being new to drupal (d6), I would like to understand how to build community sites using well supported d6 modules to avoid "re-inventing the wheel" with custom hooks.
I believe "Using Drupal" promises to review and apply d6 modules to common use-cases with supporting examples along with pros and cons.
Unfortunately, I'm getting impatient.

Keep up the good work.
Sure you can buy a book

They should make the nut into a druplicon. :)

Done!
Your wish is my command. ;)
Awesome!
Should have a subtitle... "Drupal can be a tough nut to crack but our book will help you through it." :)
