Hi Carol
I heard the dictionary was coming this year, but isn't that going to be an
add-on you have to purchase separately? It is certainly the case for the
Apex.
I haven't used Twitter on it today, so will try retweeting and see if the
problem has been fixed, I am positive I am not doing anything wrong.
I believe there is also now support for Excel and PowerPoint formats in the
word processor but, again, I haven't tried that part out yet.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Well, there were two minor updates that we got because of the problem we had
with Twitter (it ceased) and another they had to fix, but I can't remember
what it was now.
Looks like there may be nothing outrageous in 8.2. What about the
dictionary? Do we have that yet? Again, we were told we would by June.
