Irene, puzzled, what Apple store did you go to? They do indeed keep bluetooth keyboards, there is even an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard, expensive and does not have rechargable batteries. I have the Logitech ultra-thin Mini, again very expensive but worth it. I love it. Then you can get a Bluetooth Keyboard from Amazon which has standard batteries and to my mind looks similar to the Apple expensive one. This one is just £10.00 sterling. I even have a rubber bluetooth keyboard which I purchased in Ireland in Compu b which is the equivilent Apple store in Ireland. ----- Original Message ----- From: Irene Maloney To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, January 20, 2014 8:38 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: i phones Hi, I bought an iphone a couple of weeks ago from an Apple store. It is a 5C and cost £469. That is of course in U.K. currency. Nevertheless, I hope it gives you some idea of the cost. I am determined to conquer using it but at times this seems an impossibility. Do many of you out there use a blue tooth keyboard? The Apple store don't keep them so where can they be purchased?

I am also wondering if it is easy enough to navigate the touch screen and if anyone knows, what are the costs involved ? I would very much appreciate it if anyone could offer me some advice on the above questions. Thanks and God bless, Seoirse Seoirse
