I have Java How to Program 6th edition http://www.amazon.com/Java-How-Program-6th-Deitel/dp/0131483986/sr=1-1/qid=1172356877/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-4763399-6256738?ie=UTF8&s=books
I like the book, have lot of examples and can be use as kind of reference too.
There is also new 7th edition whitch include new technologies such as AJAX for Java http://www.amazon.com/Java-How-Program-7th/dp/0132222205/sr=1-2/qid=1172356877/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/104-4763399-6256738?ie=UTF8&s=books

all 3 books you asked about are terrible.
Sorry, but that's the long and short of it.

This is by far the best introductory text on Java: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/hfjava2/

This one is also very good: http://www.amazon.com/Agile-Java-TM-Test-Driven-Development/dp/0131482394/sr=8-3/qid=1172383101/ref=sr_1_3/002-3459208-9687204?ie=UTF8&s=books

Anything else is IMO a waste of money and time if you seriously want to learn.

Thanks a lot,

I think I will take this one:
Head First Java, Second Edition

Comment:
This is a most stupid book Ive ever seen, but I like it. Less code, more stupid text.
