Hi. I am on the ViPhone list and find it very helpful, though there
are well over 1,000 people on that list so it can be very high traffic
at times. Especially when something big happens in the Apple iOS
ecosystem, like a press event or around the time of the release of the
next iOS version. The subscribe address mentioned earlier in this
thread is correct. You will have to reply to the confirmation message
and then wait to be approved by the moderators, but you should be
added to the list within a few days. There is a range of users on that
list, from beginner all the way to very technical and advanced.

Best,
Wayne Merritt
