It’s one thing to write a book about a product you love and it’s another to have that book be picked as the Best of 2007 #1 Editor’s Pick for Books on Computers and Internet by Amazon! I co-authored The iPhone Book with my buddy Scott Kelby (number one selling computer book author in the world 3 years in a row!) and last night he called me to tell me that our book was selected as the Editor’s #1 Pick for 2007 of all Computer Books. I was elated and overjoyed (read: psyched out of my mind)! So thanks to all of you who bought a copy, thanks to Peachpit Press and the staff at Kelby Training for the wonderful job on the book layout and editing, thanks to the Amazon editors, and thanks for your continued support of this blog and my efforts. And if you haven’t bought a copy yet, well…
Great news! Congratulations. A friend let me borrow his, and it was truly helpful.
Terry,
Just rec’d an IPhone as a BDAY present & was completely lost trying to set it up.
Bought the book…….nearly all features working after about an hour & I now understand how the IPhone works.
One suggestion for the ‘next’ release
The details on how to connect the IPhone EMail to your own established Email account (from your personal domain email) is not very helpfull. It took several hours with 4 apple support staff to get it working over WiFi. Main problem is that it defaults to using a SSL connection that is seldom used on a POP server.
Also Apple’s choice of AT&T was NOT a good one. They do NOT allow you to add an IPhone to any business account, only ‘home/personal’ accounts. This makes it more expensive & difficult for business users. I have multiple Cell phone accounts with AT&T but are business phones, I had to open a brand new account, no shared minutes, in order to activate my IPhone.
