I tried what you suggested on the phone and nothing happened. When I was on the text that I wanted to copy and paste, I did the 3 finger triple tap and that turned screen curtain on and then I tried a 2 finger triple tap and the speech turned off.  I'm not tech savvy at all.  Sorry about this.  I can usually follow directions if they are simple.

Thank you, Carolyn, for the tip about AARP. I'm only 58. So, I don't think I'd qualify. Give me a couple of years. Meanwhile, I'm still looking forward to purchasing this phone.

One other question came up just this morning. I make a lot of conference calls. During one such meeting this morning, I found out that a friend of a friend can't make such a call on her cell phone without pay 1 cent per minute. Has anyone noticed this issue with AT&T?

I doubt this would be a game-changer. Normally, I can't make these calls with Vforizon because I only have 700 minutes per month. Since I don't have a land line and don't see the need for one, I have a yearly plan with Skype that allows me to make these calls. So, even if I can't make these calls with AT&T, I'd still be paying almost half of what I'm paying Verizon now with unlimited talking to boot.

However, I called Consumer Cellular earlier today and asked
about the plan with 250 talk minutes and 500 megs of data
and was told that this plan was $20 per month. So either
things have changed or the salesman with whom I spoke wanted
a bigger commission. I sure wish I could get to the bottom

If Joseph meant mega bytes, he said 5 MB, that's not

very much data for one month. If you streamed one song,
that would be it.

Millibars are gradations of air pressure. It's the same
abbreviation so it's comfusing, but you mean megabytes.

HI Monte,

He referenced this MbAR instead. That doesn't make

I'm not aware of or it was a typo.
