accessories

[Jessica Brown]

Besides chargers, headsets and cases, what other accessories  can 
I buy for the iPhone? I am just wondering what all is out there. 
Thanks.

Bluetooth keyboards and screen protectors are two other accessories that
come to mind.

Re: SpeedDots Otter Box Defender Question

[Christopher Chaltain]

You don't need another screen protector, but if you want the tactile
guides you get with the SpeedDots screen protector then you can apply it
to an Otter Box.

Re: Two-finger double-tap Re: I have a few questions

[David Chittenden]

Oops, my bad, I was thinking of something else when I wrote that message. My 
most sincere apologies. I answer call waiting with a two-finger double-tap. You 
can also find the answer button on the screen if you wish.

Re: SpeedDots Otter Box Defender Question

[Jessica Brown]

What tactile guides? How many are there on the screen cover? Is 
there one for each button? How would that work because the 
buttons are always changing depending on what screen you are on. 
Where can you get this tactile screen cover? .

From: "Raul A. Gallegos" Hello. You put on the OtterBox case like normal. The OtterBox 
case has
its own screen protector. The next thing you do is put on the 
speed dots
screen protector case over it. In order for it to fit, it will 
need to
be cut so that the top and bottom portions of the protector

no longer there. I hope this makes sense.

Actually it is possible to put on the OtterBox screen protector
speed.version on upside down. The reason for this is because 
this screen
protector has been cut shorter to fit over the OtterBox face it 
self. This
means that the top portion and the bottom portion of the 
speed.protector is
not there. So I can see why somebody who wasn't paying attention 
would do
this. Or rather, I can see how someone who isn't paying

this.  Hopefully this explanation adds some clearity  to this

Personally, I'd like one of those really OTT bt handset hwich are a lifesize 
replica of a fifties/sixties handset and give that same ring.  So instead of 
pulling a mobile phone out your bag when it rings, you pull out a clunky 
great handset like you got a real oldy phone in there!  Great novelty.  Not

Re: SpeedDots Otter Box Defender Question

[Christopher Chaltain]

You can get them from and learn more about them at http://speeddots.com/

Here's what it says about them on their web page:

Our custom screen overlays provide guidance and facilitate navigation of
touch screen devices by placing a single dot over each letter and
control, making it easier than ever before for blind and visually
impaired individuals using the Voiceover screen reader to orient and
input text and access screen controls quickly and efficiently.

Our standard model of screen protector fits the iPhone 3GS, the iPhone4,
and the iPhone4S. It contains a dot on each letter and input control,
and costs only $7.00.

We also offer an advanced overlay that contains similar markings on the
buttons and input controls, however only the letters F and J on the
virtual keyboard contain raised dots. The advanced model also costs only
$7.00!

I don't know about ordering online. Is there a store that you can 
walk in to and buy them?


- Original Message -
From: Christopher Chaltain You can get them from and learn more about them at 
http://speeddots.com/


Here's what it says about them on their web page:

Our custom screen overlays provide guidance and facilitate 
navigation of

touch screen devices by placing a single dot over each letter and
control, making it easier than ever before for blind and visually
impaired individuals using the Voiceover screen reader to orient 
and

input text and access screen controls quickly and efficiently.

Our standard model of screen protector fits the iPhone 3GS, the 
iPhone4,
and the iPhone4S. It contains a dot on each letter and input 
control,

and costs only $7.00.

We also offer an advanced overlay that contains similar markings 
on the
buttons and input controls, however only the letters F and J on 
the
virtual keyboard contain raised dots. The advanced model also 
costs only

$7.00!

From: "Raul A. Gallegos" Hello. You put on the OtterBox case like normal. The OtterBox 
case has
its own screen protector. The next thing you do is put on the

need to
be cut so that the top and bottom portions of the protector 
itself are

no longer there. I hope this makes sense.

Actually it is possible to put on the OtterBox screen protector
speed.version on upside down. The reason for this is because 
this screen
protector has been cut shorter to fit over the OtterBox face it 
self. This
means that the top portion and the bottom portion of the 
speed.protector is
not there. So I can see why somebody who wasn't paying attention 
would do
this. Or rather, I can see how someone who isn't paying

this.  Hopefully this explanation adds some clearity  to this

I would doubt it, but I suspect SpeedDots or resellers of their tactile

you have a store that sells some blindness specific equipment locally,
they may be resellers of SpeedDots tactile screen protectors.

Hello. You put on the OtterBox case like normal. The OtterBox case has its

that the top and bottom portions of the protector itself are no longer

Actually it is possible to put on the OtterBox screen protector
speed.version on upside down. The reason for this is because this screen
protector has been cut shorter to fit over the OtterBox face it self. This
means that the top portion and the bottom portion of the speed.protector
is
not there. So I can see why somebody who wasn't paying attention would do
this. Or rather, I can see how someone who isn't paying attention could do
this.  Hopefully this explanation adds some clearity  to this puzzling
situation.

Hello. You put on the OtterBox case like normal. The OtterBox case has its
own screen protector. The next thing you do is put on the speed dots screen
protector case over it. In order for it to fit, it will need to be cut so
that the top and bottom portions of the protector itself are no longer
there. I hope this makes sense.

Re: link to app store

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, from your computer you can visit Google and do a search for itunes 
then the name of the app. So, if I want to find the Pandora app for 
example, in Google I type "itunes pandora". Usually one of the first 3 
results is the itunes page of the app you want. Now, in my case I use 
Firefox, but this might be similar in other browsers, I press alt-d and 
then control-c once I'm on the page. Alt-d takes me to the address bar 
and control-c copies it to my clipboard. Now I simply paste into an email.


Hope that helps.

Re: Turning mp3 files into an audio book

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, I successfully use downcast all the time to listen to books. It 
keeps my place very well. I think depending on your file names, perhaps 
this might be the reason for the trouble with ordering your files. Do 
you have them ordered a certain way? If ordering is a problem, you can 
always rename the files before importing them.


Good luck.

Re: Siri on Jailbroken Apple devices

[Ben Mustill-Rose]

Yes. Here are some reasons why you shouldn't do it:

It only works on iOs 5.01.
Installing spire on its own won't give you Siri access.
All of the free Siri proxies won't work, so you'll end up having to
pay for access.
Lots of personal information (Contacts and messages for example) will
be sent to whoever is running the proxy; hopefully it should go
without saying that this isn't a good thing.

I did briefly considder setting up a proxy myself and getting help
from someone I know who has a 4S, but this isn't just something that
you decide to do and then a few minutes later it's done - from memory
you needed to run your own DNS server as well. For the sake of being
able to ask a robot a question I really couldn't be bothered.
I use Evi which provides Siri like functionality and works very well.
Free from the app store.

Cheers,
Ben.

  Hello. You might want to read over some of the recent jailbreak messages in 
the last couple of weeks because there was a thread where people posted a lot 
of why they like to jailbreak their phone. The messages can be found from the 
list archives, and the list archive Web address is found at the end of each

to jailbreak is because I get access to a lot more tweaks and features to the 
iPhone that Apple normally doesn't allow you to do. For example, with a 
jailbroken iPhone I can integrate my Google voice number a lot more closely 
with the iPhone. I do not have to use a separate app to make phone calls. 
Another advantage is that I can use a schedule profile program so that my phone 
will automatically go into silent mode at a specified time. I can make it turn 
on or off Wi-Fi and or Bluetooth at specified times. I can change the theme of 
my phone to make it look like or sound like a Star Trek computer or a windows 
XP computer. I can make the music automatically stop playing when I disconnect 
the headphones and automatically resume playing when I connect the headphones. 
I can skip unlimited amount of times in the Pandora music player. And lastly, 
one of the most recent important ones, I can add and remove music from the 
iPhone without ever having to use iTunes. I can simply copy the music over as 
if my iPhone was a USB stick.

RE: Free app today, PodCruncher

[Jay Phinnemore]

I would assume that the app needs to be open to download podcasts. Also, You
have the feature of downloading off of 3G as well as Y Fi so don't know what
will happen if you go out of range of Y Fi half way through a download. Get
the app and give it a try and let us know.

Does the app need to be open and in the app switcher to download new
podcasts or can it download when it is closed? What if it is in the middle
of downloading a podcast and you go out of wi-fi range and you have it set
to only download on wi-fi? will you end up with half a podcast?

Is Apps gone free a free app or do you have to buy a subscription

I know store news is free, but I just want to make sure Apps gone

I'm not sure which app you are using for your reminders, but I use the one that

can be done within the reminder app itself.  I always get a sound when my

Hi,

At least for first question, you can make a call in at least three ways:

· Use keypad: dial the phone 
number using the phone keypad (from phone app, tap the keypad button to bring 
it). After entering the phone number, press the call button (bottom center 
between “add to contacts” and “delete” keys).

· From contacts list: Tap 
the contact you wish to call, then tap the phone number, and it should start 
dialing.

· Using Siri: Bring Siri 
(hold down the home key) and say, “call num” where “num” is the phone number. 
Speak clearly. Or, if the phone number is in the address book, say, “call 
someone” where “someone” is the name of the contact.

Once you start a call using any of these methods, double tap the screen 
with two fingers to end a call.

Note that Siri works only on iPhone 4S. A similar method exists for iPhone 
3GS and 4.

Cheers,

Joseph

If music is turned up loudly yes but so far so good.
I have not tried to carry on a conversation yet since mine is the sport 
headphone.

Will report on that after I try it.

Re: alphabetizing apps

[Katey Glass]

Thank you all for the answers.  Since he doesn't have his apps in
folders (yet) this works for him!  It wouldn't work for me either with
my iPhone or iPad as I have folders and like organizing my apps in to
folders, plus I've told him eventually he'll need to put them into
folders as he'll run out of Home screens.  He's used to Android where
apps are organized and he has unlimited space for them on his phone.
But, believe it or not, he likes an iPad better than his android
running tablet.

Navigon -- I'm stuck in the map manager

[Kimber Gardner]

Hi All,

I can't figure out how to get past the first screen in Navigon, the
screen that let's you choose which maps you want to download. I
downloaded the two or three maps I will use most often, but I don't
know what to do after that.

Any help will be appreciated.

Re: Navigon -- I'm stuck in the map manager

Having downloaded a map, you should have a Start App button which will get you 
out of that screen and into the normal first screen.

making ring tones work without iTunes.

[Jessica Brown]

I do not have access to iTunes except for the iTunes app on my 
phone. I want to be able to download or make my own ring tones 
and then get them to where the iPhone can use them as ring tones. 
As I understand it, the tones can't just be anywhere on the phone 
so just downloading them will not be enough. They need to be in a 
certain spot. Is there an app that I can get to move the tones 
from wherever they go when they are downloaded or recorded in 
another app to where they need to go to run on the phone?  Or is 
there a way to use the iTunes app on the phone to do this without 
using iTunes on a computer? Thank you.

Re: Navigon -- I'm stuck in the map manager

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi Kimber.

Across the bottom, there are 5 tabs.  Double tap the one that says map.  At
that point, you will be in the main menu.  You should see several buttons.
One is address.  If you double tap that one, you will be able to put in an
address.  Another button is, take me home.  One is POI.  You'll be familiar
with things after a while.

Good luck.

Lois

actual alert. It really depends on your needs and wants. I find that Imap 
Weather gets my alerts in a timely manner, but so did Weather Alert USA.

Scott:
As someone who makes his living in local radio. We certainly appreciate that
you still rely on local radio. That is exactly what local radio should be
about. However, I feel that sadly local radio has lost some of its focus
where that is concerned. Oh well, a topic for another day, another list. If
you're interested in Weather Alert USA, it can be found in the App store if
you search it out. The App does cost 9.99. However, it is totally accessible
with voiceover & can serve all or most of your weather needs. Including
weather alerts, a very detailed forecast, etc.

Sean Paul,

I do not blame you and completely agree. If some have had success with Imap
Weather Radio that is great, but I could not trust it and found the alerts
not timely enough. I am fascinated with the idea of text alerts if those
will be any more timely than what other apps may provide. I wil have to look
at Weather ALert USA since this is not an app I'm familiar with and would
like to read info on. I still relie on local radio to get the most
up-to-date forecast information during a weather event.
THanks for sharing the name of this other app.

There will be a time when cell carriers will be sending you free text

Anything delivered over the network may be subject to a delay. I used 
Imap radio in the past and it also was subject to delays as well. In 
fact I happen to have the radio on and received over-the-air 
notifications more quickly than from Imap radio. This is not a negative 
to the value the app has, but simply pointing out that text or 
otherwise may be subject to delays as well.

Re: DigitEyes or another bar code reader?

[Nancy M]

Hi Sandy,

You can use any bar code scanner you want on Digit-Eyes that works as a 
Human Interface Device (HID).   This means it emulates what a human would 
do on a keyboard.  

We support both the tethered ones that hook to your PC/Laptop using a cable 
and the mobile ones like the KDC300 that connect to your phone using 
BlueTooth.  

You will probably not be able to adapt a USB scanner to hook to your 
iPhone.   The USB scanners require a powered USB connection ("PUSB") and 
the iPhone does not support powered USB connections.   The reason is that 
the iPhone is a low-power device and the USB scanner would drain the 
battery.   If the USB-connected scanner has its own battery system, it 
might be possible, but based on a quick read of the specifications, it does 
not look to me like the Metrologic does.  I'm not aware of any USB laser 
scanner that does not use a powered connection.   Here is more information 
about powered USB for anyone who is interested:
http://www.poweredusb.org/whatispusb.html

This does not mean that you cannot use Digit-Eyes with a powered USB 
device, but it does mean that you will need to run the USB scanner 
connected to your desktop or laptop, just like you are running BC Scan.  At 
NFB, we had some people who tested the BC Scan database side by side with 
Digit-Eyes and found that there really is a serious difference in the 
database (27 million codes on D-E compared to whatever is on BC Scan). 
 There is no charge for using Digit-Eyes this way, so you might want to try 
it and see if you like the results better.

If you want to connect to the phone, you will need a scanner that has its 
own batteries and that uses Bluetooth to connect.  The one we liked best 
was the Koamtac KDC300.  This is not your only option, but of the two we 
evaluated, it was easiest to use for people without vision because it is 
omnidirectional and the other one we evaluated only scanned in a single 
direction.

There are instructions on how to hook up the various scanners on the 
Digit-Eyes website:
http://www.digit-eyes.com/laser/

We currently have a Koamtac 200i scanner in-house that we are evaluating 
and we'll be publishing a review on it shortly.  It fits into a neat glove, 
so it can leave that hand effectively free.  I've been very impressed with 
the Koamtac products, which seem to be very well-engineered.   If the 
KDC200i works as well as the 300, it could be a nice option for people who 
can't or don't want to use visible light scanning.

We'll be publishing the review on our website and if people are interested, 
I'll note it here when it is up.

If you don't have a printer, you can get us to print you audio labels on 
paper
http://pages.digit-eyes.com/cgi-bin/item.fcgi?itemKey=1922500808&store=%2Fstores%2Fdigiteyes

And if you want labels you can wash or run through the dishwasher, we have 
those, too.
http://pages.digit-eyes.com/cgi-bin/item.fcgi?itemKey=1922500809&store=%2Fstores%2Fdigiteyes


Cordially,
Nancy Miracle

Re: Two-finger double-tap Re: I have a few questions

[David Chittenden]

Hello,

The iPhone never confuses commands. This means you are brushing your 3rd finger 
against the screen without feeling it. Go to
Settings, General, Accessibility, VoiceOver, Practice Area and practice the 
command until you are able to perform it without activating a different command.

Any time you say the iPhone confuses commands, it means you are not performing 
the command correctly!

I don't like the ads either. I got the premium for a little while but found

Yesterday, I saw that there is an update for Pandora in the app store. It
has a redesigned interface, which always makes me nervous, as I'm sure it
does many others on this list. I'm curious if any of you brave souls has

Re: alphabetizing apps

Yes, this works. I've reset my screen this way many times. It's good for 
when you remove a bunch of apps because they become scattered.

Hi,

If you want to get all your apps, starting on the second page which is
where all your purchased apps will start, go into setting, then general,
then reset.  Once there double tap the reset home screen button.  You'll
be prompted to be sure you want to do that so tap ok and all your apps
will be arranged alphabetically with a starting on page 2 and so on.

I actually lost one of the default icons for messaging on the main page
and the home screen reset brought it back as well as giving me a clean
app arrangement.

Re: Pandora update

[Pete Nalda]

One thing I Like about the update though, is that the ads are easier to dismiss 
now. Meaning the ones on the screen. Also the station list has bigger text, and 
seems more friendlier with VO.

which can be done within the reminder app itself.  I always get a sound when
my reminder pops up.

Hi,

I don't have any of those tabs.

When the app opens I see a list of possible map choices. At the top
right there is an info button and at the bottom is a used space
indicator.

I have none of the tabs you're describing.

Re: Navigon -- I'm stuck in the map manager

[Lois Butterfield]

Wow, that is strange.  I just went in and down loaded a map just to see, and 
I have those 5 tabs at the bottom even while downloading the map.  They 
should be just above the home button.

Hi,

I don't have any of those tabs.

When the app opens I see a list of possible map choices. At the top
right there is an info button and at the bottom is a used space
indicator.

I have none of the tabs you're describing.

One is address.  If you double tap that one, you will be able to put in an

Good luck.

Re: 7 words

[JoJo and Clinton]

Has any one ever heard of an IPhone game called 7 words.  As I understand it 
it's sort of like the game 7 little words.  I came across it while browsing 
the app store.  The way I understand it is that you can either play it with 
other people or you can play it alone but i'm not sure.  When I first opened 
the game, it ask me if I wanted to sign into the game center so I just hit 
cancel.  I was able to read the clues but am still trying to figure out how 
to play the game.  It sounded interesting to me so I just thought I would 
give it a shot.  If anyone does know how to play this game, any help would 
be appreciated.  Another thing is that you don't have to buy any additional 
puzzle packs for it.  Here's a link to the description of it in the app 
store if anyone is interested.

Re: Navigon -- I'm stuck in the map manager

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi Kimber.

When you have selectted the maps you want to download, there is an accept 
changes button.  When you tap that that, your maps will start downloading. 
Once they have, you'll see an okay button that you need to tap.  Have you 
been through all that?

Re: Turning mp3 files into an audio book

Hi Raul,
Thanks for your advice. I found a program called mp3 to ipod converter which 
turns all the mp3s into one m4b file. It played on itunes Mac but when i synced 
books it didn't appear in ibooks. Any ideas? I may just go back to the downcast 
solution but i would like to make this work as well. Thanks.

Why get iPhone and iPad?

[Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.]

Hi,

I've heard of folks getting both, but I'm not sure why.

Does the iPad offer somethings more or different? I can perhaps
understand low vision folks benefitting from the larger screen for more
or larger text.

I'm just curious; I'm certainly open to getting an iPad, too, if it
provides something additional or different from iPhone.

Thanks. Keith

you're interested in Weather Alert USA, it can be found in the App store if 
you search it out. The App does cost 9.99. However, it is totally accessible

I do not blame you and completely agree. If some have had success with Imap 
Weather Radio that is great, but I could not trust it and found the alerts 
not timely enough. I am fascinated with the idea of text alerts if those 
will be any more timely than what other apps may provide. I wil have to look

at Weather ALert USA since this is not an app I'm familiar with and would 
like to read info on. I still relie on local radio to get the most

 Weather Radio is concerned. I've posted about the extreme delay of IMAP

 several times.  We've had severe weather in our area all afternoon & 
 evening long today. Not 1 peep out of IMAP Weather Radio. Good thing 
 I'm setting @ the computer & have my NWS Chat logged in...

 Anything delivered over the network may be subject to a delay. I used 
 Imap radio in the past and it also was subject to delays as well. In 
 fact I happen to have the radio on and received over-the-air 
 notifications more quickly than from Imap radio. This is not a negative

 to the value the app has, but simply pointing out that text or 
 otherwise may be subject to delays as well.

Hi Raul,
Thanks for your advice. I found a program called mp3 to ipod converter which
turns all the mp3s into one m4b file. It played on itunes Mac but when i
synced books it didn't appear in ibooks. Any ideas? I may just go back to
the downcast solution but i would like to make this work as well. Thanks.

RE: Two-finger double-tap Re: I have a few questions

[Regina Alvarado]

Yes David.  I found this out.  Still do it sometimes but just back out and
try again just in case that pesky extra finger touched.  Another problem can
be had when the one-finger double-tap is done and one tap is slid down the
finger slightly.  Nothing will happen, though I know I double tapped.  All
in that learning curve that is steep for newbies!

Hello,

 

The iPhone never confuses commands. This means you are brushing your 3rd
finger against the screen without feeling it. Go to

Settings, General, Accessibility, VoiceOver, Practice Area and practice the
command until you are able to perform it without activating a different
command.

 

Any time you say the iPhone confuses commands, it means you are not
performing the command correctly!

Hi,

At least for first question, you can make a call in at least three ways:

* Use keypad: dial the phone number
using the phone keypad (from phone app, tap the keypad button to bring it).
After entering the phone number, press the call button (bottom center
between "add to contacts" and "delete" keys).

* From contacts list: Tap the contact
you wish to call, then tap the phone number, and it should start dialing.

* Using Siri: Bring Siri (hold down
the home key) and say, "call num" where "num" is the phone number. Speak
clearly. Or, if the phone number is in the address book, say, "call someone"
where "someone" is the name of the contact.

Once you start a call using any of these methods, double tap the screen with
two fingers to end a call.

Note that Siri works only on iPhone 4S. A similar method exists for iPhone
3GS and 4.

Joseph

Vokul vs. Evi: Which one is better?

[Eileen Misrahi]

Hi List, 

I have checked out the description on iTunes regarding both apps and I was
wondering for those who have used either one what are the pros and cons of
each app and which one would you consider purchasing? There was one comment
for Vokul that stated that it only processed 20% of their commands, but I do
understand that there could be various variables that would increase
reliability. Any thoughts on which app to purchase would be much
appreciated. 

Thanks in advance.

Re: Why get iPhone and iPad?

[Blinkin]

Hello,
There are a handful of apps that are offered on the iPad that aren't on 
the iPhone but in my opinion it hardly makes it worth the cost.
I have an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2, the only reason though is because I got the 
iPad for Christmas  last year.
It is easier to tpe so if there is achoice between that and my iPhone I 
will pick iPad but replying to emails is still faster on a computer.
To sum it all up, no, there is no good reason to get one.

Re: Vokul vs. Evi: Which one is better?

[Blinkin]

Hello,
vokul for me has been very very good and has hardly misunderstood 
anything I say to it. I love Vokul for my texting.
I use Evi for everything but texting and social media updates though. 
You can't ask Vokul where the nearest gas station is for example.
Evi sometimes misunderstands who I want my texts to go to but it is 
fairly good at it. It is certainly faster than Vokul but like I said they both 
have their place on my dock.

Hope this helps!

Gmail app now has push notifications

[Grant Hardy]

Hello all,

I haven't been following this list a lot lately so if this topic has
already been beaten to death, I apologize in advance - I did a super
quick search of past postings and didn't see it!

For all you Gmail users out there, the Gmail app, while not entirely
accessible in certain respects, now has push alerts for new Emails.
There have been a few alternatives that I've used in the past, such as
the Ultimate Notifier app - which checks mail every thirty seconds -
and setting up a Google Exchange account in Mail - which has a few
bugs. Now, you can have true push notifications for your Gmail
account.

Cheers,

Grant

Hi,

I've heard of folks getting both, but I'm not sure why.

Does the iPad offer somethings more or different? I can perhaps

I'm just curious; I'm certainly open to getting an iPad, too, if it

Hello,

If you want nothing displayed, I believe you use status. If you want

RE: Speeddots online shopping/SpeedDots Otter Box Defender Question

[Dianne B. Phelps]

Just wanted to encourage anyone who wishes to deal with Speed Dots online to
not be afraid as for this simpleton, their site was pretty straight forward
to use. I went in there yesterday afternoon and ordered successfully some of
their material and was impressed. I will add that I did this on my computer,
not the iPhone itself, but I was impressed.

I would doubt it, but I suspect SpeedDots or resellers of their tactile

have a store that sells some blindness specific equipment locally, they may
be resellers of SpeedDots tactile screen protectors.

there an app that will give me weather alerts and the pollen count?

Scott:
As someone who makes his living in local radio. We certainly appreciate
that

you still rely on local radio. That is exactly what local radio should be
about. However, I feel that sadly local radio has lost some of its focus
where that is concerned. Oh well, a topic for another day, another list.
If
you're interested in Weather Alert USA, it can be found in the App store
if
you search it out. The App does cost 9.99. However, it is totally
accessible

with voiceover & can serve all or most of your weather needs. Including
weather alerts, a very detailed forecast, etc.

Sean Paul,

I do not blame you and completely agree. If some have had success with
Imap
Weather Radio that is great, but I could not trust it and found the 
alerts

not timely enough. I am fascinated with the idea of text alerts if those
will be any more timely than what other apps may provide. I wil have to
look

at Weather ALert USA since this is not an app I'm familiar with and would
like to read info on. I still relie on local radio to get the most
up-to-date forecast information during a weather event.
THanks for sharing the name of this other app.

I can't check my settings since I removed the app. :) THings may have

months or more.
I do not want to give anyone the impression the app is junk because your
experiences may be different then mine.

There will be a time when cell carriers will be sending you free text
messages about weather alerts. Of course this is assuming the FCC and
others come together. :) And for our non-U.S. members the FCC is the
Federal Communications COmmission which is responsible for all things

Re: Speeddots online shopping/SpeedDots Otter Box Defender Question

I'd also recommend them for their customer service. I tried to take
advantage of one of their gift codes, but when I used it, I didn't get
credit for it. Turns out it had expired on midnight UTC. I think they
caught the issue and credited me the difference before I even reported
it to them!

BTW, I got their advanced tactile screen protector for the iPhone.

Hello. You might want to read over some of the
recent jailbreak messages in the last couple of weeks because there was a
thread where people posted a lot of why they like to jailbreak their phone.
The messages can be found from the list archives, and the list archive Web
address is found at the end of each message posted here. However to answer
your question, one of the reasons I like to jailbreak is because I get
access to a lot more tweaks and features to the iPhone that Apple normally
doesn't allow you to do. For example, with a jailbroken iPhone I can
integrate my Google voice number a lot more closely with the iPhone. I do
not have to use a separate app to make phone calls. Another advantage is
that I can use a schedule profile program so that my phone will
automatically go into silent mode at a specified time. I can make it turn on
or off Wi-Fi and or Bluetooth at specified times. I can change the theme of
my phone to make it look like or sound like a Star Trek computer or a
windows XP computer. I can make the music automatically stop playing when I
disconnect the headphones and automatically resume playing when I connect
the headphones. I can skip unlimited amount of times in the Pandora music
player. And lastly, one of the most recent important ones, I can add and
remove music from the iPhone without ever having to use iTunes. I can simply
copy the music over as if my iPhone was a USB stick.

Hi, what do you mean? Ring tones can be up to 30 seconds I believe. So,

Hi Jessica 

I don't believe that there is any way of doing this. The only way to get a 
ringtone on yur phone without using iTunes on a computer is by buying it from 
the store. Also if you jail break you can do what you want.

blind square location wrong

[Mark Furness]

Unless I hold my iPhone 4 horizontally with the home button toward my stomach 
and facing upwards,
it tells me  locations are behind me, when they are in front, 
3 oclock when they are 9 oclock.

In short opposite  from where they really are.

 I did have the phone in my front pocket wright side up and upside down. No 
difference. 
my screen is locked into portrait mode..
What do I need to do, that will allow me to carry my phone in any way except 
horizontally?

Re: making ring tones work without iTunes.

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, you can use iRinger from a windows computer to make the actual m4r 
file, however in order to sync it to your phone you still need iTunes. I 
don't believe there is another way of getting m4r files onto your phone. 
If there is, I can certainly stand to be educated.

Hello Listers,
I have a set of mp3 files of an audio book. What are some recommendations for 
the best way to read this on the iphone? Is there a program for concatinating 
them into a single file? Should i create a m4b file so i can keep my place in 
the book? What are alternatives to itunes for listening to it? I have used 
downcast to import podcast mp3 files before, but it seems to mix the order of 
imported files. Any suggestions and experiences would be appreciated. Thanks.
Marc

Battery cases or external batteries?

[Mária Orovčíková]

Hi list,
are there any battery cases available which protect IPhone the way like 
otterbox defender case does?
I mean I would like to have the whole device covered and use external 
battery or battery case when I am out.
Another question is are the battery cases able to charge the Iphone to 
full capacity (I mean 100%)?
I know this question may sound stupid, but I got an external battery 
(not battery case), and it charges Iphone just by 20% and then te 
charging process is done.

I would be very grateful for your advice.
Thank you in advance.
Maria

RE: Why get iPhone and iPad?

[Amy Billman]

I own both, and what I use depends on what I'm doing.
I still gravitate to my iPhone because it's small enough and I can hold it
in my hand.
That being said, I love typing on the iPad over the phone because of the
bigger keyboard.
So it's great for couch surfing. LOL
It's lighter than any netbook or laptop, (at least the ones that I've
owned,) so when I've gone out of town, I take the iPad, my phone, and a
bluetooth keyboard; because if you're having lengthy email or IM
conversations, it's easier still to do all that typing on a keyboard to save
time on occasion.
The iPad speaker is better for streaming.
iBooks on the iPad is a beautiful experience, and some of the native iPad
apps for recipes are made even better by the bigger screen.
But really, despite all that, I'm not sure I'd own one as a blind person
were it not necessary in order to properly test out our screen protectors;
unless I were a college student. Then, I would be on Rehab's bureaucratic
butt to buy me one, since it's cheaper in the long run than the over priced
note takers.

I'm not really sure why if you cannot see the screen beyond wanting a note
taking/ebook reading solution for school, people tend to own both unless
they just love techy toys. The visual appeal of all that screen real estate
and having their apps in HD, is not something that the average person who is
sight impaired can benefit from unless they have quite a bit of sight.
Just, my two cents; or more accurately, it's probably only worth about one.
:D

Bigger screen means bigger keyboard, mrs is sighted and does the pad on her 
lap in the arm chair;  the phone goes out and about. She's into jigsaw 
puzzles and there's tons for the pad;   could be vGood for other games too; 
but phone is still the everywhere work horse.

Hi,

I've heard of folks getting both, but I'm not sure why.

Does the iPad offer somethings more or different? I can perhaps
understand low vision folks benefitting from the larger screen for more
or larger text.

I'm just curious; I'm certainly open to getting an iPad, too, if it
provides something additional or different from iPhone.

Thanks. Keith

Hi, you can use iRinger from a windows computer to make the actual m4r
file, however in order to sync it to your phone you still need iTunes. I
don't believe there is another way of getting m4r files onto your phone.
If there is, I can certainly stand to be educated.
