In an online time that seems to be pushing print magazines a little further out of need, a new magazine is preparing to push out its first issue. That is right, iPhone Life will role out its premier issue on September 9 and is being published by Thaddeus Computing, the former publishers of Smartphone & Pocket PC Magazine.
iPhone Life will be available by subscription and also at major bookstores to include Barnes & Noble, Borders and Wal-Mart. Readers who choose to subscribe will get the premier issue and at least four issues in 2009 and four in 2010 for just $25. Subscribers will also get a digital iPhone friendly version of each issue.
According to the publisher, “the iPhone is changing the way people use their phones, and we’re here to help them get the most out of it.” I like the idea, but cannot help but think most of the material will be found online before the issues ever hit the newsstand or mailbox. However, thinking like a non-geek this may be a good way to get some of those tips and tricks into everyone’s hands.
If you are looking to get an idea of what to expect you can check out the table of contents from the premier issue here.
The 100-page premier issue includes:
Full coverage of the new 3G iPhone
Top software from the iTunes store
85 hidden features
Best FREE software and web apps
How to Rip DVDs
Must-have accessories
Safari surprises
iPhone profiles of a doctor, rabbi, student, mayor, CEO
Celebrities who have iPhones
Regular departments include profiles of people who have integrated the iPhone into their life, articles telling users how to get the most out of their iPhone, resources available on the Internet such as free software and support, and more.
