So what is the difference in the IPhone 4, and the 4S?
Realise that if the ne IPhone has yet been released, that's not what I have.
I just have the 4 16 gb. So again, just to confirm, you're saying i o s 5
still will work. Right?

I used to have someone do it quickly from the phone for me.

Well, in the new IOS5 by default the triple click home key is activated. So
now all you need to do is do the triple click to turn on or off Vo. So if
you got the new iphone4s and brought it home you don't need a PC to turn on
Vo just triple click the home key. HTH

Then I should stand corrected. Would the option to start vo only be
available at startup? If it could always be turned on with tripple tap of
the home button, then it's definitely an improvement.
