I observe that we are still on 7.0.3, the bit of interest being the 0. I think 4 got up to 4.5.something, can't remember what 6 got up to; 6.1.3, I still have it; so no Major updates yet, 7.1 should clear all the current issues, so long as they don't introduce new ones.
RobH, waiting for the new version dust to settle. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wayne gmail " <ewaynebrum...@gmail.com> To: <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Monday, November 11, 2013 12:22 AM Subject: RE: When will Apple take this seriously? Or one can wait a while and IOS 7 will get better. IOS 6 started with bugs and ended up butterflies because each update included fixes and improvements. I'll bet that was true of the $4,000 Android phone as well. After all it depends on the Android operating system which is relatively new to accessibility and shows it. I can easily recall picking up the phone, dialing the operator, and telling her the long distance number I wanted to reach and waiting while she connected me. We tended to hold our analog watches where we could see them because the long distance charges per minute could quickly mount into serious money. For me, I think IOS 7 is really great<smile>!

Ok, go to American Printing House for the Blind, www.aph.org and check out their braille android phone. I believe the cost is around $4000. It is a phone specifically developed for the blind. It's specific functions work well for the blind. You have your wish answered. Enjoy your $4000 Android phone.
