Alessandro although t4 and t5 are based on the same concepts i think that u do things in quiet a different way and it's not worthy to buy if u are planning to develop an application using t5.
There have been rumors of 2 other new tapestry 5 books that could go out. One would be an english translation from Igor's new book (http://www.amazon.de/Tapestry-Die-Entwicklung-Webanwendungen-Leichtigkeit/dp/3827328446/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1260435889&sr=8-1-spell) and the other one would be a new one written by Howard.
