I keep my phone in touch typing mode and when I need to enter an accented letter or even the ñ as my last name is Muñoz, I'll slide my finger on the virtual keyboard until I find that particular letter and tap the keyboard somewhere else with another digit (split tapping or whatever it's called). .

Also be careful when buying an I-Phone 4, these things do have a battery life, and I recall reading somewhere it is between 400 and 500 charges. This means that if a person has a phone for say two years, the likelyhood of it's lasting for another two years is questionable I believe. Fred Olver

Paul, The good news is that if storage is not an issue for you, i.e. 8 Gig is enough, it appears you will be able to get an iPhone 4S with 8 Gig of storage for only $99 which will still give you SIRI. I still think spending the $100 more and get an iPhone 5 with 16 Gig is well worth it, but that i
