Update: Tips & Tricks – iPhone Secrets
Michael (Admin) | Jul 29, 2009 Books, Updates

Earlier this summer I gave everyone a run-through of Tips & Tricks – iPhone Secrets, an iPhone cheatsheet of sorts. It lays out a whole mess of iPhone functionality that a lot of casual users are clueless on and a few things that even the most hardcore iPhone nerds probably don’t know.
Since then we’ve seen the release of the iPhone 3GS and the release of OS3.0, so naturally the folks at Intelligenti Publishing got to work and nearly doubled the number of geeky iPhone secrets from 38 to 70. They were even nice enough to label the tips with little icons that tell you if you’re looking at something that’s improved in 3.0, done differently in 3.0, or completely new in the latest iPhone firmware.
And for all the people who are broke as f (like me!), there’s also an icon that tells you if a certain function is 3GS only. Great idea – the last thing you want is to start beating your head against a wall as you look for features that your antiquated 3G just doesn’t have.
Intelligenti seems very committed to keeping Tips & Tricks up to date, plus it’s still only a buck (!) even after adding all that new content, so if you buy this app for yourself it could turn out to be the gift that keeps on giving as the iPhone continues to evolve.
