A+! Best book about the iphone!!

This book was even better than I was expecting. I found it very entertaining to read. It teaches basic principles about the iphone and then goes into a lot of advanced depth, including work arounds and extras. It mentions third-party sites and other things to make using the iphone even more fun. This book is monochromatic--blue and white--with no 4-color photo images. I thought this would bother me, but it doesn't because the layout is simple and clean. I'm glad they went that route to keep the price around 10 bucks. I found this book more helpful than other books about the iphone and for half the price. For instance, Scott Kelby is really great (I saw him at Photoshop World), but I was quite disappointed when I didn't really learn anything from his book. Maybe he'll publish a second edition that will have more info. I bought this book about 3 weeks ago and I still find myself picking it up every now and then. I always find something new to learn. It's small size (about 5x6) makes it easy to transport in my bag so I can take it anywhere.
