I have a 5th Generation iPod Touch. It cost me 239 pounds.. It is a 32GB one. I have thought of getting an iPhone but apart from the expense I would be paying well over 300 pounds for the phone feature and then add on the 239 pounds for the iPod Touch feature, I think therefore the iPhone is extreamly expensive so feel I will l keep my iPod Touch and my cheaper Nokia even with Talks is much cheaper -----Original message----- From: mark bishop Sent: 23/04/2013, 1:19 pm To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: ipad accessibility Hi Jackie Thanks for all that. I too had an I-pod touch as well as the I-phone but sold it as I decided I didn't really think it sensible to have a device for one thing and another device for something else. thanks Mark Bishop ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairnsplace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2013 10:55 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: ipad accessibility > Hi Mark > > In essence, I didn't get on with the iPhone first time round, so gave it > to > my son.
