Yes, but it is a matter of degree. Overall, blind people tend to complain and resist change more than sighted people. In schools, blind children tend to resist change more than any of the other physical or sensory disabilities. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten

Re: It's Official: Mark is on iPhone 8 Plus (smile)

The iPhone X is just a little larger then the 7 and 8. It is significantly smaller than the 8+ and 7+. However, it is the heaviest of all the iPhones. There is a rumour that Apple is working on an X+ which is supposed to be just slightly smaller than the 8+ / 7+. Kind regards, David

Re: Seventh Heaven Apples, Anyone?

Yes, I found the upgrade to be worth it. Then again, my plan gives me a new phone upgrade once every 12 months. I upgraded from an iPhone 7. If I wait two years, I get to keep the old phone. If I upgrade, I need to trade the old phone in. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email

If you use one email address, it is necessary to change countries in iTunes. Each time you change countries, you need to enter a valid street address in said country. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +61 488 988 936 Sent from my iPhone > On 9

Yes, MagicJack is the most affordable option I have found for having a number in the US. My mobile phone provider / plan now gives me free and unlimited calling to several countries, so I no longer use MagicJack or Skype. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com

Hi, If the iPhone can be updated to iOS 11, turn the rotor to actions whilst on the home screen. Use the single-finger vertical flick to edit mode and double-tap. This performs the same function as the double-tap and hold gesture. Kind regards, David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten
