Teeny, tiny, dark type on a dark patterned background! 21 July 2007
By George Trudeau - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Perhaps the author has something worthwhile to say, but sadly it is unreadable. Someone apparently thought that printing all the text gray, in 4 point type on a dark checkered background was cool. But what were the rest of the people in the publishing company doing? Well, I suppose it makes a nice picture book.

Nice pictures with magazine-like approach 16 Jan 2007
By Verome - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
The Phone Book is intended for browsing as much as it maybe have been intended for reading. The layout and design are are beautiful. The book briefly touches on the history, markets, cultures, brands, design, and features of cell phones.

The thing is that I wasn't looking for a book like this. I really wanted something like CNET Do-It-Yourself Camera and Music Projects (which I now have) that tells me how I can use my smartphone for all kinds of tasks.

I would recommend the Phone Book to anyone who wants an easy-to-digest overview to the phone business.
