Customer Reviews & Comments
I purchased this book to learn how to use the features of my new Droid. The book is very well organized which allowed me to solve my problem with voice dialing in just ten minutes. It allows me to go directly to sections of high interest without having to read it like a novel. If the book had been published earlier, I would have bought it before getting my phone so that I would understand how the device works and be up to speed with it much faster. Managing battery life is important with a phone with so many high energy consumption apps and this book does a great job explaining the process. The book is printed on high quality paper with beautiful graphics. After purchase, you will be able to acivate a free online addition as well as be able to reach the author by email; he was super responsive to my inquiry.
