Book Reviews of iPhone: The Missing Manual
Book Review: Best guide out there...
Summary: 5 Stars
This pretty much explains everything about the iPhone. I have read about 3 iPhone guides, and none of them beat this one. Explains everything with detail, and plus humor! It even offers online help, since they will probably update the Iphone constantly, they show you all the updates for the book. Great item, well worth your money. I didn't mind paying for it, since I didn't pay for the iPhone. This is symply the best iPhone manual you find out there currently. And BTW for those who are wondering how I got my iPhone just go here: doiop.com/applefree
I didn't think it worked, but I saw it on G4TV, tried it, and I got it! After you get your iPhone be sure to get Pogue's manual, you wont regret it.
Book Review: Easy to use, comprehensive and a quick read
Summary: 5 Stars
This book has been extremely useful in helping me learn and use my iPhone's capabilities. It is very easy to locate any subject I've looked up directly (versus reading the book in its entirety), and the info presented has proven accurate and easy to understand while being a quick read. The author also injects some light humor into his writing, but not enough to be distracting. Overall I couldn't be more pleased with this book.
A quick note: be advised that you won't find this book in an Apple Store. That's because it contains some info on hacking the iPhone. I'm not sure why the author included that info in the book, but it had the sad effect of removing this book from a logical marketplace.
Book Review: I discovered things I didn't know....
Summary: 5 Stars
I was among the first to buy the iPhone. I had watched all the online tutorials on the Apple website before its release. I went through every screen and option. I read all the reviews. I thought I knew it inside and out. I even gave tips to coworkers who had gotten one. And then I got this book and discovered I had more to learn. Exceptional pictures and illustrations. I read this author's articles in the New York Times regularly. He is great. I love his work. If you haven't seen it check out his video on the iPhone released at the end of June. It is hilarious. This book has tips you may have missed. At the very worst it will remind you of things that you have forgotten. Worth the money.Book Review: Best of the 4 books that are out (with online updates available)
Summary: 5 Stars
Sat there at a bookstore coffee shop with all the books piled up and went through them to decide which was the best one to get. All the others were too simplistic. This one has humor, treats me like an adult AND acknowledges it will probably be out of date as Iphone updates and directs you to a web site for all the updates to the book that you can get to for free (along with the programs mentioned in the book) The book is written by two people, one of which has been writing Mac Books for more 20 years (and whom I learned how to use a mac from one of his books) Tons of tips (and easy reference to the exact page number of that tip) I highly recommend this book.Book Review: An easy format that lends to quick browsing and immediate understanding.
Summary: 5 Stars
Consumers who have just purchased an iPhone will want to include iPhone: The Missing Manual in their shopping cart: it packs in details on the phone's basic and sophisticated features alike, showing how to sync it with a music file, how to get online using one of several ways, how to customize it for optimal performance and personal needs, and more. Both computer libraries and general-interest collections will especially appreciate the color tip bars, many sample screen shots throughout, and an easy format that lends to quick browsing and immediate understanding.
