-A Python + iCloud wrapper to access iPhone and Calendar data.
\ No newline at end of file
+PyiCloud is a module which allows pythonistas to interact with iCloud webservices. It's powered by the fantastic [requests](https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests) HTTP library.
+
+At its core, PyiCloud connects to iCloud using your username and password, then performs calendar and iPhone queries against their API.
+
+### Authentication
+
+Authentication is as simple as passing your username and password to the `PyiCloudService` class:
+
+```python
+>>> from pyicloud import PyiCloudService
+>>> api = PyiCloudService('jappleseed@apple.com', 'password')
+```
+
+In the event that the username/password combination is invalid, a `PyiCloudFailedLoginException` exception is thrown.
+
+### Find My iPhone
+
+Once you have successfully authenticated, you can start querying your data!
+
+#### Location
+
+Returns the device's last known location. The Find My iPhone app must have been installed and initialized.
+
+```python
+>>> api.iphone.location()
+{u'timeStamp': 1357753796553, u'locationFinished': True, u'longitude': -0.14189, u'positionType': u'GPS', u'locationType': None, u'latitude': 51.501364, u'isOld': False, u'horizontalAccuracy': 5.0}
+```
+
+#### Status
+
+The Find My iPhone response is quite bloated, so for simplicity's sake this method will return a subset of the properties.
+
+```python
+>>> api.iphone.status()
+{'deviceDisplayName': u'iPhone 5', 'deviceStatus': u'200', 'batteryLevel': 0.6166913, 'name': u"Peter's iPhone"}
+```
+
+If you wish to request further properties, you may do so by passing in a list of property names.
+
+#### Play Sound
+
+Sends a request to the device to play a sound, if you wish pass a custom message you can do so by changing the subject arg.
+
+```python
+>>> api.iphone.play_sound()
+```
+
+A few moments later, the device will play a ringtone, display the default notification ("Find My iPhone Alert") and a confirmation email will be sent to you.
+
+#### Lost Mode
+
+Lost mode is slightly different to the "Play Sound" functionality in that it allows the person who picks up the phone to call a specific phone number *without having to enter the passcode*. Just like "Play Sound" you may pass a custom message which the device will display, if it's not overriden the custom message of "This iPhone has been lost. Please call me." is used.
+
+```python
+>>> phone_number = '555-373-383'
+>>> message = 'Thief! Return my phone immediately.'
+>>> api.iphone.lost_device(phone_number, message)
+```
+
+### Calendar
+
+The calendar webservice currently only supports fetching events.
+
+#### Events
+
+Returns this month's events:
+
+```python
+api.calendar.events()
+```
+
+Or, between a specific date range:
+
+```python
+from_dt = datetime(2012, 1, 1)
+to_dt = datetime(2012, 1, 31)
+api.calendar.events(from_dt, to_dt)
+```
