iPhone: The Missing Manual: Covers the iPhone 3G

Written so that anyone can understand it! I must admit, I haven't completed the book but it is nice to know I have a place to go. I had no idea I could do so much on my IPhone!

Excellent choice. Answers all the questions you had plus a whole bunch that you didn't know enough to ask quite yet. Current on the 3G model as well.

Well worth the price, and more.

As always, David Pogue's Manuals are useful, necessary, informative and a delight to read. It took care of some of my apprehensions and opened most of the doors.

One practical suggestion. When it deals with iPhone's intrusive Auto Suggestions, the most important piece of advice
"To ignore the suggestion, tap it with your finger" (p.20)
should be surrounded by NEON.

In one instance the Manual and my iPhone substantially disagree. Page 35 says that the owner's "phone number appears at the very top of the Contacts list..." (if Contacts is opened from within the Phone module). This is not the case on my phone. There is no way that I can find my own phone number on the All Contacts pane. My fault, perhaps. But I have not found any configuration or workaround, or bit of advice.

Would be a great help.

I'm a manual geek. I write them, I read them. I did read the iPhone user manual and learned a lot, but not nearly as much as I learned from this book. Little things like finding wifi spots, using the maps app better, and learning keyboard tips and tricks have made using the iPhone an altogether more rewarding experience. If you have a iPhone, you need this book!

David Pogue is so good at what he does he could get hired by Apple or Google immediately and instantly improve their technical documentation department ten-fold. The Missing Manual line of books is so good that it's like candy for the tech reader that wants to learn more about nearly any technology on the market.

With 'iPhone: The Missing Manual: Covers the iPhone 3G' Pogue has done it once again, improving on the previous edition of iPhone TMM by covering the new 3G line of phones. People like Pogue blow me away, they are people that seem to be able to get 25+ hours out of every day that most people only use/get 1440 minutes. I don't know how he is able to turn around such quality books in such a rapid amount of time, it's sick.

From the writing to content to design to the total package, if you want a book that will cover the iPhone top to bottom in a fun, educational way look no further.
