Hello All,

Episode:  Don’t Throw It All Away

Hello Everyone,

To date, I have had no fewer than 15 conversations with 8 people via their new iPhone 5s. 

I am amazed at the outstanding voice call quality of the iPhone 5 as heard from my end of the wireless connection.  Simply put, I was unable to tell that they were not on a land-line.

Regardless of the hardware glitches, iOS bugs, etc, the iPHone 5 is, in my opinion, a superior product in terms of wireless call quality.

Bravo to Apple on this feature.

Episode:  Is God All That Great?

Hello All,

I am delighted to report that with the release of Apple’s iOS 6.0, Siri enabled devices such as iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, can now dial Contacts whose telephone numbers contain special symbols, such as those used to selectively display Caller ID on the AT&T Wireless network.

Although I do not recommend it, AT&T Wireless customers can now send text messages to telephone numbers containing the Display Caller ID symbols, as well. 

The following are updated instructions that describe how to implement selective Caller ID on the AT&T Wireless network:  Read the rest of this entry »

Hello Everyone, 

NOTE 1:
I just returned from over 90 minutes of using the iOS 6.0 Maps App, via VoiceOver (Apple’s software screen reading solution for the blind and low vision), on my iPhone 4 S running iOS 6.0.  I am extremely tired and uncomfortable as today was a particularly hot day here in southern California.  Normally, I would post my results after a rest but want to report while the experience is still fresh in my mind.  So, if the following comes across as curt, please accept my apology; I just want to get the facts, as I experienced them, to you.   Read the rest of this entry »

Hello Everyone,

You know, when Apple announced Passbook, I thought, among other things, one would be able to take whatever store reward cards, currently in one’s possession, such as those issued by CVS Pharmacy, Kroger, The Vitamin Shoppe, etc, and either scan them into the App or enter any ID numbers that were associated with the Rewards card into the App.  This is the case with one of my favorite free Apps called Key Ring.   Read the rest of this entry »
