I am thinking of using it for my Calculus Research Lab with SAGE next year!

Subject: [sage-edu] Calculus and Sage

I'm intrigued by the "Differential Calculus and Sage" book found here:

http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/wdj/teaching/calc1-sage/

Who has used this book (besides the authors, although I'm interested in what 
David Joyner has to say)?  Any comments?  Currently, I use Stewart's 
"Calculus".  How do these books compare?

I've been planning on moving away from using an expensive textbook for some 
time now, but there are only so many things you can do at once:)  Perhaps 
"Differential Calculus and Sage" could make this move easy for me.  I'd love to 
hear thoughts and comments, both of the positive and negative variety.  Also, 
if you know of other similar calculus texts, I'd love to hear about that, too.

Thanks.
