Helo All. Now, of course I know this is a Talks list sdo apologies for a short off topic email and then I'll leave this alone.
The comments about the iPhone in general have not been my experience. I have dropped many Nokkia phones (Accidentally Of Course) and they have sustained damage in various ways. Most people now put their iPhone in a case which means that unless you drop it on the screen on a hard floor, it will not be damaged. I have never had the problem with Voiceover turning itself off as you state. I now have a brand new iPhoane and I find i6t extremely good in all departments. That's It.

Nokia phones can take being dropped but the iphone screen will shatter unless you are very lucky. I've owned an iphone and could not wait to be rid of it and to go back to talks. From time to time voiceover will just disable itself as if it was a new phone. You will either need sighted help or to connect to a pc with itunes installed to reactivate voiceover. If you use turn by turn gps you will not have this on iphone that is accessible.
