Maybe, but my cynical side suggests that we'd see at least one complaint about being forced to read a 493 page manual before you can use the iPad.

I still have not read any manual. If you need to read the manual, the software ain't designed right.

Besides, just hit a few apple devoted website and you pick up most of what you need.

Cause the iPad is so difficult to use. More technology and products are coming with links or small cards pointing to the manuals. Not including paper manuals actually saves money both the companies and consumers. And in a world trying to be green, the less paper used the better... Besides, if the put a manual app on the device, someone would complain that apple was wasting storage on something they didn't want.

How hard is it to click a link?

Tip do what us kids do mess around with everything I never used a iPad before but as soon as I got it I knew everything about it

you can download it from the apps store and place it on your book shelf, that's what my wife did. Freddie
