Joe, you and I had chats about the phone before and I can't remember if I had bought mine at the time. I have now and I would be more than happy at any time to chat with you privately about it. The only thing that I have some difficulty with is texting. My difficulty is more to do with my patience really. It is that I am not as fast as I use to be. I am faster than I was at the very start but I certainly wouldn't send as much texts as I would have before which probably isn't a bad thing either. Now, apart from probably having an MP3 player why wouldn't you want to use your phone for this reason? Its very easy and so convenient. Having your emails sinced to it is great also and then as you have already said, there are a wide range of apps out there for it also. I am not a technical person but I am familliar with it purely just by using it. So, if I can be of any help with questions I will answer them. Cheers, Nicky. ----- Original Message ----- From: joe bollard To: vip students Sent: Saturday, March 26, 2011 10:24 AM Subject: [vip_students] mobile corner hello susan, go to www.nbp.org and look there for the i phone book, i purchased the daisy format of the book and downloaded it, i also know that they do a braille version of the book, but i am not sure about a CD version, one piece of advice i was given was to purchase the book before purchasing my phone, still puzzled as to what model of the phone i should purchase, i don't want to use it as an mp3 player playing music and reading books, just as a phone with some of the aps it contains, those of you on this list with i phones prepared to be bombarded by questions, eleanor thanks for the off list help, much appreciated,sorry for this short novel, take care, travel safely, joe. __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5987 (20110326) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
