It's not random. When you swipe up the cursor moves to the left when you
delete, and visa versa if you swipe down. Once you get used to it its okay.

Hi Jen,
It took me some time to figure this one out, so I'll save you the trouble.
When you're in an edit field, use the roter function to switch between
options. I've found that the best way is to do the roter gesture until you
hear words, then swipe up (for the previous word), or down for the next one.
Once you're on the word you wish to edit, do the roter gesture
counterclockwise once. You should hear characters. Now when you swipe up and
down, you'll move to the previous or next character, respectively. You can
edit this way by adding characters by typing once you're at a place you wish
to change, or by double tapping on the delete key. What I can't figure out
is when you're typing, where are characters inserted? Anyone know? I just
tried a test file as a note, and found that insertion was happening before
and after the characters I had in focus, and I'm not sure what the delete
key removes: the letter you're on or the one before it. Which is echoed?
Things seemed to change at random.
I know this isn't completely helpful, Jenn, but it might be a start. The
Viphone list is helpful, but so high traffic that it can be hard to keep up.
Which is why it can be difficult to receive a reply.
Sarah

Do you guys know if you can edit messages with the iPhone? I mean like see
what you have typed, and insert characters in different places? Can we read
by letter?
Sorry for the post here, I am just having problems getting the VIPhone list
to help me. You guys are awesome!
Thank you so much!
Jenn
