It's not available for me in Indonesia with this message:

This title is not available for customers from your location in: Asia & Pacific

What will it cost when it's released later?

For those without a Kindle, remember that Kindle editions like this can be read using the PC or iDevice clients.

It's available in Australia. Strange, because it's often considered part of the Asia Pacific/Oceanic region.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing. I've been using vim for 6 months, but I still feel like a n00b. Looking forward to checking this out.

I started my vim experience using Janus

But I didn't understand how anything worked or why any of the plugins were there.

That led me to starting from scratch (I forked my cofounder's dotfiles) and now I feel like I know my vim config waaaay better. If you've been using janus, I'd highly recommend giving the ground up strategy a shot.

If you send me your email address I'll lend you my copy for 14 days (the limit set by the publisher).
