Re: [IDevices] new iPhone
I guess I am unusual in that I don't usually flick around my iPhone to activate items. I learn where things are located and just put my finger on the icon. I have no usable vision either. I like to explore the screen so that I can learn that this may be in the top left, or center, etc. sometimes I will flick, but rarely. I find that it is quicker for me to just the icon. Of course, I am also one of the few who likes the standard typing mode over the touch typing. lol again, this is just my personal choice. every single one of us are different and what is comfortable for one, may not be for another. So for me, the size of the screen in terms of ease of navigation isn't a challenge. However, I am not sure I will like the larger screen simply because of the fact that it won't fit in my pocket as easily. lol I like that it fits comfortably in my hand when I am holding it to my ear and that it can be stowed easily. It is funny, when cells first came out. they are large and bulky. then, the in thing was to try and make the phone as small as possible. Now, because of access to movies and other visual content, cell phones are growing up again.

Re: MLB at bat issue
My husband and I are also experiencing these same bugs. I will add my voice to yours in asking MLB to fix the issue. My current work around is to keep my finger on the screen until I find the audio button for my favorite team. This works right now. but... it is still frustrating.

Re: At bat issue
I don't have an iPad but I will tell you where it is on the iPhone app and I hope it is the same. But I had to tap the more tab and then tap on m l b account information. Once I tapped that, the edit fields for my email and pw were there and I was able to type in everything and hit the log in button. I hope this helps.

Re: At bat issue
Hey guys, we actually had this problem here and tried everything so called mlb. Apparently when it updated, it logged out. You need to log out and log back in again. We did that and it is working normally again. I find it strange that it doesn't tell you that yo need to log back in, but that fixed it for us.
