Book Reviews of iPhone: The Missing ManualBook Review: Excellent starter's guide Summary: 5 StarsClearly illustrated and well-written, Pogue's guide to the iPhone is a great introduction to your device. You'll have no problems making it do tricks to amaze your friends and even if you're an experienced user, you'll find tips you didn't know before.
Book Review: Great gift Summary: 5 StarsI bought this for my cousin who has an iPhone for Christmas. In the 5 minutes he read through it while we were all opening presents, he figured out how to do something with pictures that he couldn't figure out how to do before so he was thrilled! His wife calls his iPhone "the other woman" so I was worried that anyone this obsessed with his phone would already know how to do everything and this would be no big deal but he was really excited about it.
Book Review: Decent Book For People Getting Started Summary: 3 StarsThis book is a decent resource for people getting started using the iPhone. It is as the title states, the missing manual. There's some extra tips and stuff, but not much after the basics. Pogue's writing style makes the book fun to read. Definitely for beginners only.
Book Review: Initially skeptical Summary: 4 StarsI was not expecting too much, and when I brought this book home, my husband immediately claimed I could find it all on the .Mac site. Of course, I had tried that already. But, in fact, we had not known about a bunch of neat features of the apps and the best links that provide workarounds for some of the limitations of the iPhone. For example, the "list" link I have started using is better than the link app on my earlier pda, and it is also accessible (and private) from anywhere including my office. Just having someone do the work to screen the links first, is more than worth the price. But recommended links, hidden features... really, this book has improved our daily lives. However, it isn't distilled, and you have to read through things that are quite obvious to get to the info.
Book Review: A ton of useful information you can't find anywhere Summary: 5 StarsI can't say enough about this books. So much great inside info about the iPhone that you can't find elsewhere. Ironic, but the UPS guy left this on the ground and my dog must have liked the picture on the front because she chewed it all up before I got hold of it. Only lost a few pages though! : )
