Book Reviews of iPhone: The Missing Manual
Book Review: Buy This Book!
Summary: 5 Stars
While many features of the iPhone are intuitive to use, the iPhone is so much more valuable if you can use all of it. This is an excellent resource for learning, using and trouble-shooting your iPhone. If you're a tech geek who beta-tested the iPhone you probably don't need it, but the rest of us will benefit from it.Book Review: Great Companion
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this as a present for someone who just bought an Iphone and he totally loved it. He read it in like two days and thought it was the best guidebook. He said he learned a lot of information from it. things otherwise he wouldn't have known within 3 days of owning the iphone. Book Review: Review of "iPhone The Missing Manual"
Summary: 5 Stars
On February 12, 2008, I bit the bullet re: AT&T and purchased my first iPhone at the Apple Store. By then, the new 16GB model had appeared, and I jumped at it. Three days later, I realized I needed a manual to start the learning curve climb, and I ordered David Pogue's terrific manual from Amazon. By now, March 24th, I have gone through all 292 pages with a hi-liter, and, while there're plenty of features I don't yet understand, many of these will become clearer now that I am into David's book, "Mac OS X Leopard, The Missing Manual" for my new iMAC PC, and figure out the syncing of my iPhone with my iMAC. But, that book is about 890 pages, and I had to buy more hi-liters.
Not everyone learns the same way, and David's iPhone manual has been excellent for me. Now that I have it all hi-lited, I can zoom to the topic of the day, with my iPhone in front of me, and practice. I only wish the manual opened flat, since I only have two hands to hold the manual and the iPhone at the same time. However, the manual goes everywhere the iPhone goes until I have mastered the iPhone. Does anyone ever master it?
Incidently, through Amazon, I paid $17.58, including shipping, and not the $21.19 I would have grossed at Borders...not the greatest discount, but well worth it. David Pogue's manuals are the ones I'll continue to seek in the future.
Book Review: iPhone manual
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very useful book if you own an iPhone.
It tells you all you need to know, and get the most out of your phone.
You would think that paying APPLE $500 for an iPhone, it would include a manual, ANY kind of manual.
Book Review: A must for all iPhone owners
Summary: 5 Stars
WARNING.....if you don't have an iPhone, don't buy this book because it will make you immediately go out and want to buy one.
This is THE must book for all iPhone owners. I had no idea that the iPhone had so many functions, and best of all it taught me things that I would never have figured out on my own - ever. Apple provided very limited documentation and the iPhone and basic functions are so easy to figure out I will bet most people will not go to the Apple website and print out the manual- http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/iphone/ - and really miss out on what the iPhone has in that great, technomagical, small package.
The book is easy reading with lots of pictures. Very well written and fun to read.
The phone is an expensive investment when you consider that you can get free cell phones from carriers. Buy this book and get maximum return on your investment and maximize what it can do for you.
