The logic is reversed. The Input port returns true when the switch is open, not pressed. Page 19 explains this in more detail, but is incorrect.

I saw this on a Netduino Plus revision B.
Build 4.1.2821.0

Note from the Author or Editor:
The description in the book is correct for firmware release 4.1.1 and later. Unfortunately, the stable version is still 4.1.0 (update 6).

Currently (January 2012) a beta release of 4.1.1 is available at http://forums.netduino.com/index.php?/topic/1593-netduino-plus-firmware-v411-beta-1/
