Hi Tom.
I'm sorry to hear about the devorce and appreciate the trouble, it's a shame
that osmehting which is already emotionally difficult has to come with such
a lot of financial issues.
Of course, if your looking for an accessible phone just as an accessible
phone that's fair enough.
I confess, I actually only looked into Ios myself primarily for games and
other fun stuff. Previous to this, I always thought a tablet, or indeed a
phone with similar functions for me at least was a little superfluous.
Up until last October I used a very bog standard, actually quite old but
still functioning Nockier phone. This had zero accessibility features at
all, however it did the job I wanted it for, it was a phone! I could pick it
up, dile a number and speak to someone, and get messages by phoning the
answer service. For E-mails, music, books, games, word processing etc on the
go, well frankly having carried a laptop around on my back for close to 15
years it never particularly struck me as a big deal to do so, even going as
far as whipping my laptop out on station platforms or while sitting on a
park bench. Of course,six hour battery life was annoying, but not a deal
breaker since I was rarely outside a charge socket for longer than that even
on trains.
The Iphone was therefore for me mainly a luxury thing to have fun with, ----
and yes it's certtainly done that, albeit I have been very pleased at the
amount of other things it's done.
While I still own a laptop (and indeed am writing on one now), I will admit
I do find the extras the Iphone has, and the fact that it's small enough to
say just take with me up the street very helpful.
so, if you want a phone, just as a phone there are likely other options
available. Whether Ios or Android, ultimately your getting a lot more than
just a phone, and it's really that lot more that takes up the money.
All the best,
DArk.
