From The Economist:
Apple changed all that. Take the iPad: an extremely expensive bit of high-tech kit, it comes with no instruction manual. You open a luxuriously thick cardboard box and behold what looks like a piece of art. What next? You press the one big button on the front. The iPad jumps to life and starts setting itself up to work for you. Then you start playing with it. How many people have ever downloaded, printed or read a bit of the instruction manual? After using an iPhone, there are few things more complicated than figuring out how to work a Blackberry.

No instruction manual?
.... not like I ever read them. ha ha ha.
OK. I read one tonight.
Instruction manuals are incredibly difficult to write, because you have to distill just enough information without overwhelming the user. Its why some companies went to quick start/users guide/product manual methods for quick/enough/thorough information handout.
