It can be done - I ordered a copy from these people on December 4th, and 
it arrived between Xmas and new year. However:

- the email in response to placing the order said that another email 
would be sent when the book was despatched, but I never received this.

- the money was taken as soon as the order was placed, which is a dodgy 
business practice.

The hardback doesn't seem to be available now - searching on the CPI 
website only finds the paperback (I got my copy by turning up at the 
SPARK user group meeting in October).

Cheers,

Phil
