When I bought this book, I was looking for a book, as the title suggested "to get the most from my ipod". What this book actually is is a list of things your ipod can do without a detailed explanation of how to do it. There are many lists and examples of what your new gadget can do, but what is seriously missing, to me, are "idiot proof" key strokes to take you through each step of the features. Granted, there are occasional explanations, but they are buried in text, don't jump out and are few and far between.
I seriously recommend that you do not make the same mistake as me and consider another, clearer and more user friendly guide to the ipod, which is what i will be doing.
