5.0 out of 5 stars Useful Info for Smartphone Users, September 27, 2004

By	Ellen Craw, Ilium Software (Ann Arbor, MI) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Do Everything with Your Smartphone, Windows Mobile Edition (Paperback)

A collection of useful information for users - new and old - of Microsoft Windows Mobile Smartphones. The format makes the book very easy to either read or to use as a reference, with lots of pictures, tips, and notes. The book is well organized, and full of real-world examples and advice. It covers both the included basics, and additional software and accessories. As someone who develops and supports Smartphone software, I know how much a book like this is needed by the Smartphone community!

2.0 out of 5 stars Dated Owner's Manual, November 8, 2004

By	Tony (CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Do Everything with Your Smartphone, Windows Mobile Edition (Paperback)

Unfortunately this is not the best format to get up to date information on this subject. I suspected this but still bought the book. It read a lot like the owner's manual that came with my smartphone. Some the recommended links didn't work. I found a lot more useful information in current magazines or online forums.
