    The Best manual

    The information in this book helped me to learn how to use my iPhone. It is written in a way that you can understand (not in geek speak). I was able to set up and use my iPhone to its highest
    potential for me.

    I have recommended this book to friends and accuaintances that I met at a free instruction class. Most of what the instructor showed us I had already learned, set up and was using my iPhone before the class. I also bought his "missing manuals" for my iPod and iPad with the same satisfying results.

    I highly recomment to everyone.
