Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone can help me out.  I have the I phone four s and it
keeps freezing and it works with voice over when I go to the apple store for
them to reset it.  I need a I pod.  I have looked online and the new I pod
is to expensive.  Is there a accessable I pod to get that is not too
expensive.  I need one asap so I can read my learning li and book share
books for school.  Any help would be great and I need answer asap.  You can
email me back at beckyasabo at gmail.com the only request for the I pod it
needs voice over on it .
Thanks again.
Becky Sabo
