Hi Martin, Don't feel bad about not using features. How many sighted people use all of the features on their phone? Very few I would hazard. Just use what you need and learn the ones you need to use well, and you are well on the way.

I don't know what I would do without talks on my phone. I find it really opens up the phone for me although my only regret is that I don't always feel I make the most of all the features as often as I probably should, but when I do, it's fab.
