I have indeed. I received my advance copy from Simon & Schuster yesterday (not
much of an advance), and my pre-ordered shipment of 50 copies arrived today. We
should have these up on the Merchant Page of our web site by early next week.
While the book is very sparse in terms of new vocabulary, it does have some
insightful examples of short phrases and discourse. I've only skimmed through
it, but it has already helped me tremendously with the suffix -meH, something
that has always (for some unknown reason) been a problem for me.
There's a lot to pour over in the book, and I'm hoping that we'll see some
articles and letters on the book in upcoming issues of HolQeD.
