Free PDF version of "Introducing Visual Basic 2005 for Developers" available on the VB 2005 Site
Ok, you might have spotted that I've been in catch up mode of late so there is a fair chance I'm the last person to spot this but on the Visual Basic 2005 there is a free book titled "Introducing Visual Basic 2005 for Developers". It downloads and installs as a set of PDF docs. Oh and on the VB 2005 site you'll also find a stack of resources ranging from data access, to threading to doing generics with VB, awesome, tons of "free" bed time reading!!
