[Electronics-talk] I-phone users

[Jude DaShiell]

For the new IPhone user and ancient windows user.  Putting your finger 
on the screen of the iphone and moving it around on that screen 
highlights controls.  Holding  your finger still when something is 
highlighted and the label for the control is spoken and then hitting the 
screen with another finger elsewhere on the screen is like a double 
click and you know what that does.  Same deal with letters and symbols 
on the keyboard when that shows up on the bottom of the screen in 
VoiceOver's default  typing mode.

When people ask do you believe in Numerology, the proper reply for me at
least is do you believe in a hammer?  The proper answer for me for both
questions is no, they're both tools and to be used under appropriate
circumstances.
