 a must-have resource for iPhone owners September 9, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Its elegant simplicity can lull one into thinking that an iPhone's interface can be mastered in a couple of sittings. David Pogue's book is a needed wake-up call for new owners, one that shows there is so much more than what is on the surface. Like other Apple products, behind the transparent simplicity is a wealth of features and time-saving shortcuts that can make one's use of an iPhone that much more powerful. This book should be required reading for every new iPhone owner.

This book contains many tricks and little known info on the IPhone. You can learn how to send and receive text messages completely free of charge, how to save battery power, how to manipulate the keyboard for easier use. Very helpful and informative.

As easy to use as the iPhone is it still has some secrets up it's sleeve and this is where "iPhone: The Missing Manual" comes in really handy. The book goes step by step through the basics of the phone, mail, browsing and the iPod functionality, as well as all of the other handy applications. And with each of those I found something I had missed along the way.
In addition to handling the basics he also has a lot of handy tips about special numbers to dial, the differences in the various email services, and handy keyboard shortcuts that have allowed me to get much more out of the phone.
This book is definitely worth the money, and I think it's a must have for anyone who has just bought an iPhone. If it's worth several hundred dollars to get the phone. It's worth another $14 to find out how to use it right.

For the past few months I've had a-well, I might as well call it what it is-an obsession with the/my iPhone. I was beginning to feel pretty smug about how much I knew about the device.
But since I'm also a fan of David Pogue (never miss his columns nor his weekly e-mails), I decided to buy this book (if only to learn that I had nothing else TO learn about how to do everything the iPhone Can do).
(I'm kidding about feeling smug; I was just comfortable that I"d been getting the most out of my iPhone.)
WOW! Was I wrong!?! This book is incredible! I picked up 4 or 5 new "tips" from the first dozen pages. And lots more since.
Buy it . . . unless you were on the team that designed the iPhone.
Very helpful... August 22, 2007

As ever with Mr Pogue's Missing Manuals, it's not so much the whole of the text but those myriad little tips spread throughout the book.
I recommend it to all iPhone users. It improves the already fool proof operation with lots of good tips.
