Well just a minute Jackie, did you mention in previous e-mail perhaps that C5 does not have wi-fi. In addition C5 is available SIM Free and unlocked from RNIB and I thought but could of course be wrong that it is possible to get N86 from Sight & Sound but generally in combination with KNFB Reader. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairnsplace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Jeff

If you mean between the N86 and C5, I am using the latter at the moment as
it is so nice and neat in my pocket.  But you would need to be quick as
these are becoming quite scarce, and the N86 appears to have disappeared
now.  This is the problem with Nokia altogether and keypad-style handsets.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Barry

I'm with you.  It's why I dumped my iPhone and gave it to my son.  I have
an
iPod Touch, and I love this for at home to download apps and listen to
music.  That suits me.  I use a C5 or my N86 for phone calls, texting and
all the rest.  They can keep the iPhone, it's too much hassle.

What you needed to do is go into App Switcher, where you press the home
button twice.  In there, it lists the apps which are open, and you would
have seen Safari there if you'd known.  To close it, double tap, but on
the
second tap, hold your finger down until VO says "Edit" or something, then
you lift your finger and double tap each app that is open to close it.
Once
App Switcher tells you there are no apps currently open, you know you are
safe.

But what a carry on, forget it! (lol).

Sorry, I can't give you a reason for sticking with it unless your contract
provider will let you switch to something a bit more savvy.  Trouble is
that
Talks and proper keypads are becoming so scarce.

Good luck.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Subject: [access-uk] I-phone too long winded

Hi all

I've recently discovered, through a fairly large phone bill, that I need
to
go through some sequence that is akin to a Freemasans handshake to close
an
app such as Safari.  In essence, I've searched the net, pressed the home
button to  close it, so I thought, and got on with my day.  However, as
I-phone users hopefully know, it did not close but carried on in the
background until I shut off the mobile at night.

I'm sorely tempted to go back to my Nokia N86, on which I just pressed one
button to close a so-called app.  Texting is so much easier and I've got
K-nfb reader too.

The I-phone makes a nice I-pod accessory and has some gimmicky app's that
I
would use once in a blue moon, but to do anything is too long winded to
use
as a simple mobile.

I'm on a two year contract, but I'm willing to lose money on the deal just
to go back to simple.

So, guys, I'm looking for a good argument why I should keep my I-Phone 4
and
not go back to my N86.

Cheers

Barry
