I also received my book on Saturday, Sept. 14 in central New Jersey. We enjoyed looking through that evening. The pictures (especially the cover) look a bit too fake - like done in front of a blue screen. I also find it confusing not to have the point charts included with the resort information (although I can understand the reason for putting all point charts together).
Overall, I prefered the binder (and still love having it on my bookshelf), but this guide seems well written and it clearly contains the keys to a couple of magical vacations for our clan
Ditto for me in Chicago Area. No Guidebook and no VM. Maybe it is due to the fact that we just closed. I can get VM online, but I sure would like to get the Guidebook post haste.
