[Nfb-krafters-korner] comments on I phones and note takers

[Nicole Hutchins]

Hi,
I have both a Mac and an iPhone, and you couldn't be more right. They're not perfect, but I'd never EVER go back to a PC. I love them both, and they're much cheaper to maintain than any PC. They may cost a bit more innicially, but it definitely does pay off.

Cheers,
Nicole
