OK, I'm about to the point where I'm not gonna reply to anything at all.

Every time I try to do it somebody says I can't seem to make it work. I'm just a dork I guess. I just can't figure out how to delete addresses that aren't there. I tried to post an address for you or whoever and I copied and paste did it, but it didn't work either.

I'll give up on this post because it's not really related to electronics. I'll try to get the Apple support thing. Maybe I'll just call Don myself. I just can't seem to work it out for myself. Thank you so much for the info.


Jenny

>> It's like comparing a Volkswagen to a Mercedes. With Be My Eyes, you are dealing with volunteers, and are limited to the field of vision of the camera lens on the phone. With AIRA you have the additional field of vision provided by the glasses. You also are dealing with paid trained staff, who in addition to having the image provided by the glasses, also have access to additional location data provided by resources like Google maps, Google places, and Google Earth. They are really two different resources. in other words, you get what you pay for.
