[nabs-l] At last - the iPhone iOS6 Updates are here!

[Kirt Manwaring]

Mike,
  Maybe I'm a spoiled and whiny product of the twenty-first century,
but something that "is small enough to fit in my backpack" just isn't
portable enough for me.  I want something that can sit in my pocket,
right alongside my phone.  Heck, something built into my phone's case
would be ideal, although I'm content to use my braille note as a
keyboard for the time being.  Just my personal preference; as you said
on another thread, different strokes...
  Best,
Kirt
