Well, I went for it big time. When I got to Verizon they had one iPhone 6 left, 128 GB which was above what I need but it was the same price as the 64 and while I was there since I changed to the Edge plan (next year I have another new phone) plus well it just sounded okay with me. Then I was offered a case, I went with Otterbox, of course, And some other device, one was Bose Bluetooth speakers. In addition the man told us the android tablets were free because I bought a new iPhone, so my cousin who has wanted one for a while got it set up for her. I came home, had a difficult time finding the place to plug in the lightning cable first I knew it was on the bottom and figured the case was covering it, I found that but then I have never been particularly good with the cable on my iPad so. Finally got iTunes up restored all my apps.
Sadly I lost all my Bard books and I don't always remember what I had planned to read. I see access to my iBook's is still there but Read2go is empty and I have not looked at Audible just yet. Then, because I had to give my apple Password at Verizon I decided to change it. Finally got there and I can't tell you how many times it told me it was either not strong, did not a capital letter or that they did not match. I know it is security but it is a true drag if I have no clue what it is. My 4s went for trade, but my late Husband's 5 they would not take because it had not been wiped and I tried the passwords he often used but I can't get into his phone, have no clue what he was using, probably something to keep me out, only because I put a Diabetes app on his phone (at his request no less) when he was sleeping. The upshot is it is a brick to me, they can't turn off the "find my iPhone" without being able to access his account and based on the trouble I had this evening with my own password, I can't imagine how to fix it so I can take it back to them. I suppose I could use his apple ID. Say I forgot the password and change it provided I can think of one they will accept that it, something I can remember and not a jumbo. I need someone to help me get it on my WIFI, had to change its password when I had to exchange the CenturyLink box last April and no one stayed around long enough to read it so I could get it in braille and my scanning ability is limited, KNFB you really may have to cooperate and help me out here. Now I am off to reread Jonathan's book again. Oh, my cousin put my speaker on something and I can't find it, and she can't find her android tablet, and I looked all the places she was and I can't find it either, but then, I am not the best at finding lost items any longer, I can hold it in my and it would seem lost to me. Can't turn the speakers on because they have to be on for the phone to sync up to them. Man I miss Tom, sick or not his eyes worked to help me out occasionally. I miss him for other reasons also. I found the speaker but I don't see her tablet anywhere. I hope it is here. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Rose Combs Sent: Friday, September 26, 2014 9:15 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: I say that you should go for it - Re: KNFB Reader, First Impressions Yes, well, I had to play a lot also to get the oven temperature but it was better than not knowing, since in the past I either undercooked something or burnt it. Took me about 5 minutes to get what I wanted, or maybe not, it seemed that way anyway. If all goes well going to get the 6 today after using the 4S or 4 forever it will feel strange at first, I know it took me a minute to adjust to using my late husband's 5 when he could not seem to concentrate to get what he wanted. Then of course he moved stuff all around so finding what I needed was a problem, usually once I was holding it for a minute or two my finger memory adjusted to the very slightly larger screen. I don't do as much flicking as some do partly because under many circumstances I just know where a finger should go with the things I use on a daily basis. I did my backup just a few minutes ago, encrypted, made sure all purchases were transferred so I am as ready to do this as one can be. Have to make sure the5 is in my purse before I leave for appointment at the bank. Something to be maybe slightly excited about for an hour or two. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Alan Paganelli Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2014 11:21 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: I say that you should go for it - Re: KNFB Reader, First Impressions I have the new style washer and dryers with the digital readouts that show how much time remains on the washer or the dryer. Talking Goggles reads that for me but you have to play with it. I seem to get everything else other then what I want. I found it can even read the print labels such as heavy, or delicate.

BTW, I used Talking Goggles to assure myself that my oven was set where I wanted it, it took a bit to get the result but much better than guessing and getting it wrong. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Charles Rivard Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2014 11:22 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: I say that you should go for it - Re: KNFB Reader, First Impressions Everyone else thinks you would be frivolous to upgrade. The key is, and you probably already know it, is that everyone else do not use the phone for the purposes that you do. The KNFB reader will possibly be a major function of the phone, and you need the better phone to use what you have bought to it's fullest potential. If I were you, and if I have the money, I would go ahead and upgrade. --- Be positive!

I am on a 4S with 32 GB memory and the app switcher was empty. I know I need to upgrade the phone, want to do so but transportation for something frivolous is a problem and everyone seems to think upgrading my phone is something I do not need to do. I would need help activating a shipped phone and getting the two I have back for trade-in would be difficult thus I have not ordered one to be sent, plus I work, would not be here when it would be delivered. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
