instructions
Lack of instruction/owners' manuals appears to be the norm nowadays. I got a new phone a few months ago (maybe it's a smart phone, not sure - I don't have the internet/texting package - just wanted the Qwerty keyboard for the ease of inputting contacts and a few other features).
Anyway, compared to my cellphone of about 3 years ago, even though this phone does way more, there is basically a quick "get started" few pages. Everything else is supposed to be either intuitive or accessed by the help button. I suppose there is a manual online as well.
I have always been a book person and even a person who actually usually reads the instruction sheets that come with things to put together. Apparently, I am not very "intuitive." Sigh . . . (Thank goodness I have kids who help me out when I really get stuck).
I got a Macbook in January, and I do find it more intuitive than a PC, even for me, but I still get a lot out of the free classes at the Apple store. I didn't pay for the One-on-One tutoring Apple offers, but they have free small group workshops on various things - my next one is I-photo. Since I now have the time, I'm trying to become less of a dinosaur. Not my first choice though, of how to spend free time. I would still rather read a book - an actual book, not on a Kindle or I-pad or whatever.
