[Electronics-talk] Assistance with I phone

[River Linda]

The Hadley School for the Blind did seminars called iFocus on using the
iPhone. There are YouTube videos, or search the Hadley website
www.hadley.edu under past seminars. Hope you find this info helpful.

Looks like you have enough volunteers to help you out in getting started
with your phone, but if you need another volunteer, my email is
waterinmyroom at gmail.com.
