I think I read that 4.0 documentation and beyond will be free; a shift in the 
JBoss business model?  Has anyone else heard that the 4.0 docs will be free?

In any case, I wouldn't recommend getting the subscription to begin with.  From 
what I've seen so far (about 4 months of development with the JBoss Application 
Server), about 90% of your questions will be answered in J2EE documentation or 
tutorials that you can get for free on Sun's website.  Another couple of 
percentage points will be covered by the JNDI documentation and tutorial.  
JBoss docs, and most books for that matter, seem to cover the more powerful 
features exclusive to JBoss.  The odds are that you won't approach that pitch 
until you're pretty far down the road development-wise.  When you get that far, 
spring for the training or even support.  In the mean time, pick the funnest 
looking $10 doc and get it.

Of course, this is just my opinion from my experience so far.  Anyone disagree?
