I think it's about time I read this but being in the UK imported copies cost £££s with even 2nd hand ones selling for around £40. Has anyone read the Kindle edition and is it an acceptable version or should I fork out and invest in a hard copy?

I have the kindle edition. The pix are better if you view them on a 'puter than on a tablet, better on a tablet than on a phone -- of course! Bottom line, I totally felt like I got all that I was supposed to from the soft copy.

I do not have 1st had knowledge of the kindle version but I found this short explanation:

"Kindle Version Notes
CURRENT VERSION : 1 (January 14, 2012)

VIEWING : SSBBT3 was very challenging to format for Kindle due to the 800 or so illustrations and extensive layout and caption changes required. We've tested the output on an old Kindle 2, Kindle PC, Kindle Fire, and Kindle's Blackberry app. The Fire was the winner with our testers. Some images are difficult to see well on the Kindle 2 and the tiny Blackberry screen, but viewing these on full-screen applications (or reference to a hardcopy of the text) should have every user covered.

NAVIGATION : The kindle version contains a normal table of Contents that corresponds to the print version, but fully linked. We've also included a separate organization for use in the gym, "In the Gym: Quick Reference". This groups links to practical sections for each lift, as well as some other on-the-platform topics (see screenshots on Kindle PC here and here). Throughout the text, references to figures and other cross-references are linked to the corresponding location."
