He recalls fondly putting together features on baseball card investing, karaoke machines, and the odd things people collect, including Pez dispensers, vintage radios, and magic memorabilia. Ed began his journalist career at Fortune magazine, gaining the best basic training imaginable during his early years as a fact checker. Through the dozen years he worked at the magazine, Ed covered leisure-time industries, penned features on the lucrative dating market and the effect of religion on corporate managers, and also started up Fortune’s Products to Watch column.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I am a tech geek and I do buy Dummies books because for some items, Wiley is the only publisher that will issues guides for items I am looking for. This book is an excellent example. iPhone for Dummies covers the original iPhone, NOT the 3G version. That said, it is still a great read. I bought this book because I was interested in an iPod Touch which is an iPhone without the phone. This is an easy to read, fun and informative book with lots of usage tips. There are wonderful, full color shots that show off the screen and features of the iPhone. Many of the gripes about missing features located at the end of the book, were added to the new 3G version. Grab the 3G version of this book when it comes out. This book will give you inside tips that aren’t found in the manual. It is helpful for iPod Touch users as well. Quick start guides are one thing, but great tips make your device much easier to use. I have a co-worker who has an original iPhone and he was amazed that I knew more about his device than he did.

⭐Great book as all “For Dummies” books are.

⭐You could call it the missing manual..It’s a great book of all the basic info you need to know about your iPhone. I read it all in one sitting on the train and was good to go afterwards using my phone and knowing almost more than my friends

⭐Got it in great amount of time… Was perfect for my needs… Mailed it off to a friend as a reference! Thanks!

⭐The iPhone does so many things that the lay person can feel a little overwhelmed. This guide breaks down all of the wondeful functions into an easy to understand format. I’ve been a fan of Dr. Mac from back in the day. The reason being: He makes the Mac world accessible to everyone.This book is a must have for iPhone owners!

⭐Found what I needed and moved on. Certainly loaded with information to make me a master if wanted to be.

⭐I read the book and most of the time I have no idea what it is trying to say. I have been having a lot of flashbacks to my school years and find myself somehow in a cornor of a room with a dunce cap on and kids (do not know where they came from) but throwing spitballs at me and laughing.My only saving grace is that I have tecnonerds kids and they help me out. Their should be a book for iPhones for the terminally stupid.with lots of pictures and large print.

⭐way out of date I expected info on iphone 5 but there was none.may be ok for first iphone out

⭐Although I’m no great admirer of the USA and all things American I have to say that this book is so slanted States-wise as to render the mildest of information-seekers speechless with annoyance: I doubt if 10% of the information available applies to product purchased and used in the UK.

⭐Helped to get going

⭐Absolute waste of money. Everything you really want to know it says ask a friend! Network details non existent. Authors try to be clever and fail.

⭐A brilliant copy, useful for help easily ,many thanks, trusted sales,
