 Blackberry Curve Guide Made Not So Simple November 16, 2008
This book is vast in size and detail but lacks many visuals that a new user of the BlackBerry would find very useful.
I believed I was purchasing a book similar to ones that I have used in the "For Dummies" series. Had I been able to look through this book at a store, I would not have purchased it.
Could be much better October 13, 2008

This book helps, but could be much, much better.
When I want to learn about anything IT, I buy one of the "Bible" books -- "The Excel 2007" Bible or "The Word 2007 Bible." They are very, very well done: very understandable even to those of us electronically challenged, well written, well illustrated, etc.
This was the only Blackberry book I could find and it pales in comparison with the "Bible" books. If there is ever a "Blackberry Bible," this "...Made Simple" book will be useful only for recycling.
As long as it is all there is, it's OK... but just barely.

From one extreme to another
The "manual" which is supplied with the Blackberry is so elementary that many features remain mysterious to the new user.
This book supplies so much detail that many features of the Blackberry remain mysterious unless the reader has unlimited time to read through excessive detail.

Very informative and easy to navigate. Great for new Blackberry users and experienced BB users as well.
