Gosh I'm honored my words resonated.
Seriously, in a different lifetime I spent several years introducing
people to technology for the first time. Lots of them had heard stories
of what there were supposed to be if they were a truly good example, yet
equally
unfortunate, insistence of what they could never be...according to
another's dictionary.
Speaking only for myself I came to believe there is profound magic in
reminding people there is power and freedom in remembering they have
choices, are the only souls inside their bodies, and examples of human
art that will never be duplicated again, no matter if they share labels
with others.
But that is just me smiles.
thanks for seasoning some of those choices with all you provide here.
Sincerely,
Karen

Your sentiment is absolutely beautiful. I completely concur with everything
you wrote; and I truly mean it when I say that I could not have put it better,
myself.
Thank you so much for contributing to this thread.

Hi there,
The things that excite or interest us about technology are truly personal
things are they not?
I mean you are the only person using your phone, your computer, your toaster
for that matter.
so, speaking only for myself, I have not ever resonated with tech decisions
made via democracy smiles.
If the individual things that are important to your personal experiences needs
and desire are best managed by the IPhone, then your choice is made. If those
are better done with another platform, again your choice is made.
I honor your ability to know, on your own, what works for you best of all.
I do not feel I deserve a vote, nor does any outsider.
Just my take,
Kare

Hi friends!
I don’t know what to do or think really. Yu know, i got my Iphone stolen a year
ago.
So i bought me an android device and was very happy with that.
Then i bought another Android device which was faster and even more better.
Today my intention was to reset the device back to factory settings because
things were going nuts on it.
So i did that and when i started Talkback on the device the speech was gone.
People on the android list told me that my synth didn’t support my language but
that is the biggest lie in the world.
So i got really pissed off and took out my sim card and put it in the Iphone Se
i got money for from a foundation here in sweden.
It was ment to use it as an extra phone so i could have it if my Android broke
down.
Now its broken down and guess what.
I am back to the Iphone SE.
I am on a crossroad and have to decide wheather to stay the Iphone Way or the
ANdroid way.
I don’t want to start a flame war about operating systems here.
I’ve had enough of that on the eyes-free list.
BUt i want your help to decide.
Now it seems i am very very happy with my Iphone again.
And i can say that one thing that impressed me which i’ve forgot was the
ability to answer phone calls on another apple device.
Another thing that impress me is the braille support on the Iphone and Ipad.
Also the easyness when typing and doing tasks on the device.
I can say i have been testing Android and i think i was quite good on using it
but i never got the hang of talkback and all the strange gestures.
Even though they worked for me they seems to be very clumsy.
I guess i will stay with the Iphone.
What do you all think.
Sorry for the very long post.
Thanks in advance.
