Take screenshot of iPhone screen

Sometimes it would be nice to take a quick screenshot of my iPhone screen to be able to use to show someone something. Little did I know that Apple thought of that and it's really easy to do. All you have to do is press the home and power buttons quickly at the same time. The screen should flash as if you had just taken a picture, and then you can find the screenshot within your pictures on the phone. From there you can hook the phone to a computer and get your picture files. This also works as a free way to export andget your text messages off your phone into a printable format, rather than having to buy any software to do it.

This is found right in the manual, on page 80.
