[nabs-l] iphone problem

Sat Oct 13 21:26:55 UTC 2012

Joshua, I had an iPod touch for a while and now I have an iPhone. The
touch screen is definitely a learning curve, which is why I was
reluctant at first to get an I device. But, you get used to it, and I
am now using it with ease. So, don't let the touchscreen turn you away
from an iPhone, as it's a good device if you know how to use it.
