heh-heh...I actually got half-way through on Saturday (in spite of bad hangover) but my wife confronted me with a 'honeydo' list Sunday morning as we had her folks over for Grandparents Day (and to watch Sampras v. Agassi).
I am not just reading it, but going through all the prerequisites and each of the examples to make sure they work. The early bad news is that there are a number of mistakes and omissions that will confuse new Java server-side developers that experienced programmers will simply ignore; the good news is that it is very readable and the sections on the client-side (esp. custom tags) was pretty well done (not surprising since he already wrote a book on them - which he shamelessly plugs). Also, the Tomcat 4.x install/config was, with minor exceptions, straightforward (I haven't used Tomcat since 3.2, so I could be considered a novice). I want to give you guys the best review possible (and I'll copy it to Amazon.com). I'll do my best to complete it and post the results sometime this week.
