Superb Book!  
I'm a corporate IT professional and smartphone user. I've been looking for a Series 60 smartphone book as a basis for training our staff and helping them become more efficient. For the longest time there was nothing...and then I discovered this. I can't express how happy I am with this book. It's much more than a "Missing Manual." In fact, it's incredibly rich and useful, and the add-on applications it covers illustrate how to get even more "smartness" from smartphones, a point that the manufacturers haven't yet adequately communicated to the general public. Superb book!

UNBELIEVEABLE!!!  
I saw this book last week at a tradeshow in Cannes, France (3GSM World Congress) and I was blown away. I never realized the extent of how similar to my Windows PC my non-Windows smartphone (Nokia 7610) is! The book outlines cool tricks like copy/paste and also gives tips on applications users can buy and install to their phone after they begin using it. Believe me, the price is minimal for the value included in this book!
