I've got the guides to the point where the Tasmanian Climbing Guide and the Freycinet Guide are now available in hardcopy at http://stores.lulu.com/thesarvo .
The Tasmanian Climbing Guide is a bit of a monster - its every guide on this site besides bouldering and weighs in at about 440 pages and 3000 climbs. The idea is that subsections of this then have their own dedicated publications, eg the Mountain guide, and now Freycinet.
The Freycinet guide is about 100 pages with about 600 climbs, and also has several action photos. Its available in a color edition as well as the B&W for those with extra cash to splash.
There are two more editions that are really just awaiting cover photos: Tas Climbing Guide North and Tas Climbing Guide South. If you've got a photo good enough for a cover shot please send it in!
As always these books are a continual work in progress, so if you've got corrections or additions then post them on this site and they will make it into the next version.
You can also get all of these guides as PDFs off the Buy and Download Guides page.

There's no new content in them, they are just subsets of the TCG - designed for those that aren't interested in the entire content, or who don't want to lug around a 450 page book.
Get them at http://stores.lulu.com/thesarvo
Next step when I get around to it is to go around all the shops and take orders to get them in the shops. Anyone want to stock it in Lonny?
Here's the online shop for those too lazy to click on links:

Lulu.com have gone crazy. They are promising a fix in a couple of weeks, which is unfortunate. In the meantime you can always download the pdfs for free.
