well, given there is no more uniformity in appreciating sound then there is a uniform sighted verses blind people concept at all, I would say certainly some do. What tends to happen with consumers in general is that they think it is supposed to be that bad because they hear it everywhere.

I will add that zoom allows you to give participant's a call in number instead, a fine option for those ho prefer attending without video at all. Granted as is often the case when the audio is video based, the quality is sort of nose crinkle worthy, but at least the door for phone alone is

I think they mean either the phone name or the name you see when the phone is in paring mode or attached to iTunes or the serial number under about. If not that then the IMEI like you mentioned would have been my guess as well. > On Apr 20, 2017, at 4:58 AM, Simon Fogarty
