The book was in great condition and got to me quickly. It was a last minute Christmas present, so I was very happy to see it in time! Thank you!

New to iPhone, new to texting and email on a cell phone, transitioning from PDA + cell phone; new to almost all advanced features. This book reads well, has right-on tips & instructions, and helped this Nervous Ned feel at home and get it right the first time, every time.

Since the iPhone software and product is rapidly changing, a manual is a definite plus. O’Reilly and Pogue have done it again…..
Here it is in print, the manual in all its glory. No iPhone uses should be without this title. Voice dialing, visual voicemail and MMS is all covered. Older software issues are also touched. Voice recording, camcorders, a compass and global searches are all included.
Pick this one up to get the most of your phone. I don’t see how anyone can get the most of the iPhone without it.

I’ve enjoyed Pogue’s other books, including the manuals for Facebook, the iPod, and the Wikipedia Reader’s Guide. He writes clearly and with a welcome sense of humor. The updated edition of this manual covers the iPhone 3GS, released in July 2009, and version 3.0 of the iPhone software. The book’s five sections discuss the iPhone as phone; Pix, flix, & apps (music, videos, camera, photos, maps); The iPhone online (3G, WiFi, the Safari browser, email); Connections (synching with iTunes, contacts, calendar, mail, etc.); and Appendices (setup, accessories, maintenance).
Even after playing with my new phone for a few weeks, I’m still learning many cool things, thanks to the manual, including conference calling, sending batches of photos at once, recording and editing voice memos, Apple’s Mobile Me service, GPS and maps, creating, syncing, and editing contacts, and subscribing to RSS feeds.
The Missing Manuals are beautifully designed and illustrated. Read this book for fun, or for instruction, or both.

I am not a mac owner and have never owned an iphone before. I found this book very helpful in learning how to use my phone. Much easier and more fun to read than the down-loadable manual from Apple.
I quickly learned some tricks that even my friends that owned iphones didn’t know!
