Shamasha, could you verify this please.
Just click on preview at the bottom of each picture of the front of the book, and go through the pages to see the text.
The price is not too high.

They also have the Old Testament in print, but it says it is translated from the Hebrew, and is not the Peshitta version itself, as found in the Manuscripts, which are a much older translation of the Hebrew text as it was before the Masoretic revision.

The New Testament is both the Classical Aramaic and the Neo-Aramaic side-by-side, and it appears to be the eastern text. (with the eastern vowel markings, yay!)
The Old Testament is also both the Classical Aramaic and the Neo-Aramaic side-by-side. The Classical Aramaic represents the Peshitta version. The Neo-Aramaic was a fresh translation by the Presbyterian Church from the Hebrew Masoretic text. Also has the eastern vowel markings.
