I just started working through Pro Silverlight 3 in C # by Matthew MacDonald, who had been doing SL3 for a month or two.
First, the book itself: there are 792 pages: the index starts with p. 727 so hope this helps too. It is printed in color, which greatly simplifies the reading of code and XAML. There are many examples of code, but it focuses on showing the corresponding bits, and not on everything - the full code can be downloaded.
