Hi all, I have my iPhone 4S and have held back from updating to ios7 in case it isn't so accessible. Are there any good reasons not to update? I use my phone with VO and mostly without looking at the screen, though I can see positions of some screen content in low light levels. Thanks all,

Chris, On a 4S, you may notice a slow-down. It will help to turn off the automatically updating of apps. You can also dial-down the graphics if you use VO. These are just a couple tips I heard on NPR. Glenn - Original Message - From: Chris Goodwin ckgoodwi...@googlemail.com To:
