Re: 2 quick questions about IPhones as looking to upgrade

2015-01-02 Thread Shawn Krasniuk 
At any rate, Eleanor, if you want to subscribe to an iPhone list, there's 
ViPhone. you can subscribe at viphone+subscr...@googlegroups.com 
. Also, Klyphton's mailing list is 
pretty good. It talks about both iPhone and Mac. You can subscribe at 
peel-the-apple+subscr...@googlegroups.com 
. Peel the Apple is pretty 
good. They have people available for Skype if you have any problems with your 
iPhone/Mac. Hope some of these lists help.

 Hi Eleanor,
 I have the iPhone 6, and it works fantastically. I have no vision, so 
 don't need the bigger screen of the 6 plus. I personally find the 6 plus 
 way too big for me, so the 6 does me nicely. People say the battery life 
 on the 6 plus is significantly better, but that wasn't enough of an 
 incentive for me to buy it - I just don't want such a monster sized phone.
 I'm sure others will chime in with the opposite opinion. I think both 
 phones work very well for blind people, so it comes down to whether you 
 want the extra size, better battery life and bigger price tag.

   Oh wonderful is this how the new year begins? (smiles) I see no 
indication that any topic has been hijecked. Why lose sleep over 
nothing? The delete key can help sometimes because there are issues much

Hi all

My apologies, as I know this isn't directly related to Mac computers, but have 
got 2 quick questions for you.

Firstly, I am looking to upgrade my IPhone to either a 6 or a 6+. Can anyone 
who's experienced either of  these tell me which they think is better from a VI 
perspective? Also what are the differences between the 2 (apart from the 
obvious one of size)?? + has anyone encountered any significant problems with 
either of them?

Secondly, just wondered if there was an equivalent list to this one for I

Thanks.

Recently, there was a thread on hijacking a topic. Now, please tell me which 
topic this is: bootcamp issues or an iOS 6 vs. 6 plus decision? Where are the 
monitors on this? It's very disconcerting to think I'll be reading numerous 
threads on bootcamp and find that there's a totally different topic being 
discussed.

Hi Eleanor,
I have the iPhone 6, and it works fantastically. I have no vision, so don't 
need the bigger screen of the 6 plus. I personally find the 6 plus way too big 
for me, so the 6 does me nicely. People say the battery life on the 6 plus is 
significantly better, but that wasn't enough of an incentive for me to buy it - 
I just don't want such a monster sized phone. 
I'm sure others will chime in with the opposite opinion. I think both phones 
work very well for blind people, so it comes down to whether you want the extra
