[rehab] IPhone help

Yes, to hang up you can just double tap with 2 fingers - that means tapping
twice with 2 fingers at the same time.
But that's why I prefer to use the corded earphones that came with the
iPhone - the button on the right earphone cord allows you to answer calls,
hang up, increase and decrease volume, and do voice controlled commands. I
don't do the voice control commands, it never understands my speech. But I
answer and hang up from calls with the earphone cord button and that way I
never or rarely have to remove my iPhone from my pocket just for calls
coming in.

Eddie:
One problem I have with my IPhone is getting it to hang up if I call a wrong
number or if I don't want to leave a message for the person I was calling.
Consequently I have left some long messages in peoples voice mail.
Recently I have learned to touch the lower left corner of the screen and
then double tap with two fingers.  This seems to work very well.
Originally I was told the command was just to double tap with two fingers.

Hello, 

I wanted to write a quick note to thank all of you very much for the
documents, tips and tricks surrounding the IPhone. I knew that I would get a
good response, but I was overwhelmed with the positive replies from you all.
Obviously, the family of "I" products is well liked by most of you. 

I am sure it will take at least a year before I am competent with it, but I
thank you all for getting me started.
