Short and to the point
The joy of O'Reilly books is that are concise. You can pick up this book and read it in two days and start writing C# code immediately. This book covers all of the major elements of C#, but without lots of handholding.

If you're a beginning developer, this will be a poor choice. However, if you you're a fairly experienced C++ developer, I would strongly recommend this book.

I've printed out the C# Language Reference. I know all the answers are in it somewhere, but it's nearly 300 pages of dense writing. Rather than wading through it, I paid $15 for this book and I'm now writing C# code steadily and easily. I refer back to this book for quick reference questions (what's the format for setting a property, what does a COM interop call look like etc.) and then go online or to the language spec for deeper questions.

If you want to get up to speed on C# quickly, this book should meet your needs well.

Needs to be updated when .Net is final.
Being a professional, I didn't want a "dummies" book. I didn't want an abstract. I wanted the "essential" so that I could start developing today.

This book is absolutely the "essentials" and I got what I needed. If you are only going to buy one C# book (and you know what you're doing with programming languages), this is a good one.

My only complaint with this book was the lack of discussion on using C# in ASP.NET. (Probably should be another book altogether, but it should at least be mentioned.)

Next, I need a definative reference of the .Net framework. Does anybody know of any released?

My go-to book
When I first got into C# programming, I bought about $...worth of books on the subject. This has become my "Go-to" book - I go to it first, and usually don't have to bother with the other books.
