Hi Carol
I'm not quite ready to go down the Iphone or Itouch route just yet. I've
already got my hands full with Itunes as it is (scream). I like the
concept, however, and am very interested in following all threads on the
subject as more and more people start exploring with Apple products
generally. It's just very refreshing to buy something that works with
speech instead of having to purchase a licence or key or phone somebody to
get assistance to make it talk or activate.
Kind Regards,
J

Thanks Jackie. I'm willing to give it a go also and my nice man in the
Carphone Warehouse is happy for me to go for a play in a quieter period for
him, so I'll do that as soon as I can.
