Acknowledgments

Another year ,another iPhone, and another edition of iPhone Portable Genius. I enjoy working on this book so much that I almost look forward to writing the new book more than using the new phone (almost!). Why? For starters, it’s just pure fun to write about what’s new and noteworthy in the new iPhone, particularly the lesser-known features that can make your life easier and more efficient. More than that, however, I get to work with a great bunch of professionals at Wiley. There’s a list of all the people who contributed to the making of this book a couple of pages back, and I extend a hearty thanks to all of them for their hard work and competence. A few of those people I had the pleasure of working with directly, including Acquisitions Editor Aaron Black, Project Editor Maureen Tullis, and Copy Editor Scott Tullis. Many thanks to each of you for the skill, professionalism, sense of humor, and general niceness that made my job infinitely easier and made this a better book.
