Michael Redmond Books on SmartGo.

Greetings all,

I just went to try and buy "Patterns of the sanrensei" by Michael Redmond on SmartGo books for my iPad and could not find it. I was wondering if anyone knew if it was now unavailable for some reason. His other books are also now unlisted.

Any info would be gratefully received ...
