The screen on this phone is tiny, which I have much difficulty with. (You do see that I 'm blaming the phone, not My Head) I thought not getting the smaller phone(s) the store had on their shelf but getting the 6 inch long phone would do better for me. Maybe I should have got a 12 inch Tablet. Ed --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux * Origin: ILink: CCO - capitolcityonline.net (454:3/105) .
