Following yesterday’s iOS 5 release, Apple has now posted a full set of iOS 5 user guides for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Apple’s user guides are always very well done, and provide instructions for how to set up and use your device, and make the most of the new iOS 5 firmware.

The guides are provided as downloadable PDFs, and cover your device, its hardware, and more in exhaustive detail. The iPhone guide, for instance, is 162 pages long. As with all Apple user guides, the updated iOS 5 guides are free, and you can grab them directly from Apple’s support site.
