You have to make contact with your phone's screen with something that
conducts electricity, such as your skin. You can also use a stylus. They
make gloves that have either holes for your finger tips or a material
that conducts electricity, so you can use those gloves with your touch
screen.

I don't know if my gesture varies or of the phone has to have contact with
life, circulation, body warmth - just haven't figured that out. Another thing,
my daughter-in-law has the best aim for calling me while eating or cleaning
kitchen. If my fingers are the slightest damp, I can't make it answer with the
two-finber double tap.

Importance: High
We sell it for £225.00 plus £10.00 shipping.
We do know of people who have used it for navigating around their Twitter app
and have found it particularly useful for this. Also like you say, in a pocket
etc. I know of someone who has phone in pocket, bluetooth earpiece, and does
things with RIVO in his hand when out and about. I think people would be less
interested in stealing that than an iPhone to.

same here, if it had come out when I got my first iPhone, I probably
would have gone for it. unfortunately, by the time the time that the
first version came out, I had got fairly used to the touch screen. I
can see another application for this device however, that is as a sort
of remote, if one is in a situation when one doesn't want to take
one's phone out, but may want to access it, such as whilst on horseback for
example.
so as I know you are in the UK, what price are you knocking it out for?

Yes we do sell RIVo 2, also sold the original.
I don’t think the touch screen is the be all and end all either as a
smart phone etc could obviously be made with or without buttons. It
could have gone that way I suppose.
When I started with iPhone there was nothing out there to help me; if
there had been I wonder if I’d have taken advantage of it. I suspect I might
have.
But as things are I have no desire for the sort of thing this thread
is about, nor for the Speed Dots as I feel they would take away the
smooth interaction or dare I say, sensual, feel of the screen under my
fingers. I do use a bluetooth keyboard if I want to type for any
length of time. It is QUERTY as since learning to type as a teenager
that’s my preferred method of input.
All the best

I shouldn't ask probably, but does CRS sell anything like this? I'm
one of the unconvinced that touch screen is the b all and end all of

But a kb has to be quite tactile, and that is the more so with aging
senses, including touch.
Thanks, R.

In my job I come across plenty of people who have either tried and
don’t like the touch screen or have tried and just can’t get on with
it. While I personally use the touch screen most of the time I can
appreciate why buttons are useful as in making phone calls and I
would probably find it quicker but I don’t use my iPhone as an actual
phone that often. I am of course referring to numbers not in contacts
being quicker to type on a hardware keyboard. I also know quite a few
who really loved their original RIVo and those who have the RIVO 2
seem to feel the same. Personally, I just couldn’t get my head round
it; it just isn’t for me.

I think I heard about this before and maybe this is a newer version,
but for the most part I am amazed at how much trouble people go to
and how much money they spend to take away the strength of the
iPhone or, for that matter, other advanced smartphones. I understand
that there might be a few cases where a person for whatever reason
can't touch the phone, e.g. if they are quadriplegic, have no hands
etc. Apple and now Google have put a lot of very smart people to
work to come up with this incredible way to make touchscreen devices
extremely accessible, apps like Flicktype make typing very efficient
with a bit of practice yet some people still think they are better
off trying to avoid touching that screen as much as possible. Maybe
I miss something here, but I just don't get it.
