The iPhone Book debuts
Apple's iPhone on Monday will have its own "ultimate guidebook" titled The iPhone Guide. The book, authored by tech author Scott Kelby and gadget guru Terry White, is said to be the first iPhone book in print. The iPhone Book's layout provides one full page for each topic discussed, and includes full-color photos to demonstrate covered topics. The title covers numerous topics from setting up wireless internet to watching videos, and is designed as the ultimate "how-to" guide for the iPhone. The iPhone Book is priced at $25, and will ship from online retailers like Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com this coming Monday, August 13th.
Great, but...

I nice that they have book out already for the iPhone but isn't it a bit too early. If apple finally decides to open it up for third party apps o adds new features, it will become somewhat outdated.

if that happens the author would need to revise the book, it'd be a-lot easier and quicker than writing it from scratch.

Dear headline writer: Woops! Kelby's book isn't the first "full-color printed guide" to the iPhone!
My book, "iPhone: The Missing Manual," has been on store shelves for three days now; his hasn't even started shipping.
It's not a big deal, of course... just don't believe every press release people send you. :)
