Richard Well that sounds cool. I might try that too. And I don’t have anywhere near 200 apps on my phone. Can you say more about how I would position the two phones near one another that would work well? The one thing that stood out in what you wrote here that is different from what I was told by someone at Apple Accessibility, is that they said I needed to do the set up with the Sim card in the new phone. You did it all without the Sim card in the phone which is what I assumed I would be able to do if I wanted. you must’ve had to plug in your Wi-Fi info to activate the phone correct? Can I assume that the Logitech keyboard you referring to is a full-size keyboard? How different on the commands one needs to learn to use that with an iPhone andvoice dream writer? I’m ready to get rid of my old computer.
