Hi Alan, I agree with you about the email app. I don't see where the Pek and pop thing is going to do us a lot of good as voiceover users. But I think there maybe some useful things in other apps. For instance, with the notes app, where you can immediately open a new note easily. Or the maps app, if you travel and use cabs, and need to go home. Those were two things in Jonathan's demo. And I'm sure third-party app developers will come up with things. Dropbox already supports it for instance. Mary
