Silverlight 3 Books

I am looking for a good book about Silverlight 3, for myself and my development team. We are all experienced .NET developers, but practically unaffected by Silverlight.

This Silverlight.Net site contains the following Silverlight 3 development books -

  • Silverlight 3 Programmer's Handbook by J. Ambrose Little, Jason Beres, Grant Hinkson and Devin Rader

  • Start of Silverlight 3 Robert Lair

  • Silverlight 3 Jumpstart David Yak

  • Programming Games with Silverlight Michael Snow

  • Introducing Microsoft Silverlight 3 by Lawrence Moroni

  • Silverlight 3 Pro in C # Matthew MacDonald

  • Expedited Silverlight 3 by Jeff Scanlon and Ashish Godoy

  • Essential Silverlight 3 by Ashraf Michael

I was hoping to get some comments on each of them and some general recommendations.

Note that the previous SO questions in Silverlight books have been about Silverlight 2.

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.
