THE fact however is that the new books have some problems.

If you have a little bit of time to spare - wait, which I think is the
general message being sent here. This is a first gen. release of a new
design and first gen. releases ALWAYS have issues (and with Apple they tend
to linger.

No need to play "fact cop" just for the sake of it. The advice is good as it
stands. Wait if you can.
