"The iPhone is called an iPhone for a reason. Not only does it do all these cool things, it actually makes phone calls too. We'll click the phone icon, which is in the bottom dock right here, we have it in green. Click that, and it will load our phone. These are all the previous calls that I've made. We'll click this button here, and it will actually take us to calls that I've missed. We can clear our call logs, we can switch between the made and the received, as well. We can go through our contacts; we'll click the little guy on the bottom, which goes through our contacts. We can scroll through, just like anything else, up and down. To make a phone call just double click on a person, and it will bring up a picture if there is one, their phone number, address, things like that, whatever other information that you put in there. Click out of that, and we'll click our keypad. On here we'll just make our phone calls, whatever it is. We'll say 813, and then we'll be Hollywood about it and say 555-6932. That's the way you'll dial the phone, and you'll click call, and it will make the phone call for you. Let's see what else we have here. We have favorites. These are numbers that I'm going to be calling all the time, kind of like a speed dial. Then we have our voice mail; on the voice mail section you can go through and see the visual voice mail. In this section we can see anybody that has called, and we can go through the voice mails person by person, instead of listening to them all at the same time. Let's just go back, and we'll go to regular contacts, and we can go through and call whomever it is that we want to call, all the people we have saved on the phone. Those are the basic things, really simple. Touch photos, maps and anything else that you want to touch to make your phone calls. That's pretty much it. Click your back to menu, phone call is done, and that's it."
