In Anna Dresner and Dean Martineau's original Getting Started with the iPhone, we included a journal that Anna kept as she learned to use the iPhone. This journal gave you an idea of what it's like to use the iPhone and how you might go about learning new apps.
Anna's update to the book - Getting Started with the iPhone and iOS5 - is so thorough and packed full of new information that we had to remove the journal. The good news is that we're making the journal available as a free download!
