[Electronics-Talk] Sorry to highjack your post sorry to highjack your post but just got a bluetooth keyboard and when I tried to enter the email name it wouldn't come up and the list of possible names wouldn't come either.

Nope, iOS.

Looking for the cheapest option. Don't like, or want to, to spend a lot of money. I pretty much have everything else covered, but don't have Daisy.

The only other thing I have issue with. Is that if I want to download something from example, Xavier society for the blind. And it is and MP3 that is already book form. I don't know how to get it downloaded to the iPhone. I was told that I could not, but, each person has their own ways around stuff :-)

My Mac has pretty much died, it is useless, and won't do what it is commanded to do. I refuse to spend a lot of money to fix it. So, if it can't be done on the phone, it just can't be done. And again, don't want to spend a lot of money.

Now, if there is a simple, inexpensive, MP3/Daisy player, we'll talk about it. But, I did Victor or something like that, no way I could afford anything like that. Besides, I get bored on my iPhone so don't need something to play that, which should make the player less difficult and cheaper. You would think :-)

Anyhow, any more suggestions :-) you guys are really great.

If anyone on this list has tried it, how was your experience? Were the voice prompts enough to make it usable?
