I, too, have only had 2 years of Koine Greek and no classical Greek (I know I need to remedy 
that!), but I have found BDF to be a useful reference work. Maybe I don't know what I don't 
know, but I seem to be able to understand what the sections say about forms and word 
usages and word combinations. Using the verse reference chart in the back, it has been helpful 
for constructions I have come across. Between that and the one in GGBB I can find useful 
information on Greek constructions and word usages. Again, it may be that I don't know that I 
really don't understand what I am reading (because I lack a Classical Greek education), but it 
was $40 well spent, IMO. Whether I'll get the e-version is another question, though. Logos' 
blurb about it in my pop-up window said the retail price would be $79.95 and the pre-order price 
$59.95, but then it said something about the average price being $55.00. Was that referring to 
the print version, or is Logos saying that when it's released, one might be able to find it 
through, e.g., Christian Book Distributors for $55 - in which case, why rush to buy it now?
