Hi All, Yes, Navigon is one of the GPS apps that can be used on an iPod Touch with an external Bluetooth GPS receiver such as the XGPS150A from Dual Electronics or the Bad Elf GPS. Glenn's summary is correct, and you can check the recent list archives for my post in response to Lovette's questi

I don't think anyone does proper touch typing with the iPhone. Sighted people might have a go at it with their phones in landscape, but I can't imagine that being too enjoyable. As for me, I type with two fingers. I use one from each hand. Most people who type this way use two thumbs. I use my l

You do not have to type two handed. You can just use one finger to touch where you think the letters should be, then swipe to the right to listed to what it thinks you put. It it is wrong, but close, you can flick down through a list of choices. Hugs, Andrea M. Breier -Original Message
