Book description
If you’re looking for a book that focuses on just the
most important, most useful, and most fun stuff about your iPhone
3G or 3GS—you’ve found it.
There are basically two types of iPhone books out there: (1) The
“tell-me-all-about-it” kind, which includes in-depth
discussions on everything from wireless network protocols to
advanced compression codes. (2) Then there’s this book, which
instead is a “show-me-how-to-do-it” book that skips all
the confusing techno-jargon and just tells you, in plain, simple
English, exactly how to use the iPhone features you want to use
most.
The iPhone Book is from Scott Kelby, the award-winning
author of the smash bestseller, The iPod Book, who takes
that same highly acclaimed, casual, straight-to-thepoint concept
and layout and brings it to learning Apple’s amazing iPhone.
Scott teams up once again with gadget guru and leading iPhone
authority Terry White to put together a book that is an awful lot
like the iPhone itself—simple to use and fun to learn. The
book’s layout is brilliant, with each page covering just one
single topic, so finding the information you need is quick and
easy, with a large full-color photo on each page so you can see
exactly how it works.
The first edition of this book was named Best Computer Book of 2007
and, since then, Scott and Terry added even more tips and more
tricks, and made it even easier by focusing on just the most useful
and most requested iPhone 3G and 3GS features, so you can start
really using your iPhone today!
