Default DSLR Cheat Sheet Cards

I googled trying to find a downloadable PDF of Cheat sheets (for Canon xsi), but no luck.
It's hard for to think there's no a single summarized version of the manual like this.
Anyone else know how to find what I'm looking for?
Thanks

Better to just learn it, but if you want something like that, why not just by it from the link you posted?

Or you could buy a Nikon D3000 where the cheat sheet is built in -- or you could go with Jim.

Do you have a smartphone like the Droid or iPhone? When I had my iPhone( I now have a Droid X) there were apps for cheatsheets for some cameras.

I don't have the smartphone, but I have the Android simulator installed on my PC. So of there's an app I guess I can run it there and do a screengrab.

I agree with this one. You will learn better doing it this way.

splurge for the 10 bucks and be done with it...you'll be doing your part to stimulate the economy, and maybe even helping someone get a x-mas gift for their kid...

EDIT: didn't mean to sound or come off rude and obnoxious
