Product Description
Product Description
Are you looking for a book that focuses on just the most important and most useful stuff about your iPod (including the iPod touch, the nano, shuffle, and the iTunes Store)? Well, this is it!
There are basically two kinds of iPod books: (1) The “tell-me-all-about-it” kind, which include in-depth discussions on compression algorithms and tutorials on how to export your playlist in Unicode format. (2) Then there’s this book—a “show-me-how-to-do-it” book. Scott shows you step by step how to do the things people really want to learn about their iPods, and he uses the same casual, conversational style that has made him the world’s #1 best-selling technology author. This book focuses on just the most important, most requested, most useful things so you can start having fun with your iPod today. Right now! Plus, there’s only one topic per page, so if you want to know how to do something, you turn to that page and it shows you how to do just that one thing. It's a simple approach, and people really love learning this way!
As an added bonus, you can check out the best iPod accessories by visiting Terry White's Tech Blog (http://terrywhite.com/techblog).

I like Scott Kelby's books. They are easy to read, well-laid out and clearly illustrated with colour photographs. His updated book on the iPod range is great - full of tips and tricks that I found useful - even as a reasonably experienced user of the products now. Particularly good on hidden gems in the iTunes store; this book is deceptively comprehensive, although one minor complaint is that it doesn't go into much detail on how to move your music library from one computer to another. However - combined with the Rough Guide (reviewed separately) - you'll have a pretty comprehensive guide to the world of iPods and online music. Thoroughly recommended

if you haven't got a clue then this book is useful. Nice pics, clear explanations and some simple step by step guides telling you how to do just about most things. If you've already opened the ipod box and switched it on and downloaded a few songs then you can probably manage without the book!

What a cool book! I had an ipod since august and I got this book for christmas and there were still loads of things to know!!! I feel the only downside is there is not enough on Ipod minis (the Ipod I have) or shuffles but loads on the normal ipod and ipod photo! Overall great book!!!
