I'm looking for a good beginner/intermediate text book for LV 2009 (to use as a class text) and I've found two that seem very similar, but with different costs:
Any personal recomendations from anyone?
LabVIEW 2009 Student Edition
Learning with LabVIEW 2009
Both books are by the same author (inc NI) with the same publication date (Dec 2009) , and both have 752 pages (according to Amazon), but contrary to what you might expect the LVSE costs $35 more than the L/w LV version.
I'd rather not buy both just to find out.
Any insights?
(ps: all the other texts serm to be LV8.x)

"LabVIEW for Everyone Graphical Programming Made Easy and Fun" Third Edition by Jeffrey Travis and Jim Kring.
Off-hand I think the only difference in LV 2009 not covered by that book are advanced topics. My bosses uses that text to teach LabVIEW at Carnegie Mellon.

What I can see, why the student edition is more expensive, is that it comes bundled with LabVIEW student edition software, so that might be why.

Thank you... that makes total sense.
I got the recommended text, and the 2009 text. Both are mamoth!!!!!
