[nabs-l] iphone problem

Sat Oct 13 21:55:59 UTC 2012

hi all
i just ue my external bluth keyboard. that is easier. i do not like dealing with voice activated, because of my inability to speek sometimes. and useing a communication device to do that. because the systems don't always pick up on my devices. so i try to find a way to type.
