Donna,
I also heard the camera is top notch in the I6 Plus like you have so using
that KNFB reader should really work well since the Plus has a software
program that better controls movement so a better focus snap shot can be
taken on the fly, as it were. Boy, try saying that sentence in one breath.
Phil.

Subject: Re: Mac Attack
I haven't gotten a computer yet but now all my mail comes to the iPhone so I
don't have to turn on the computer anymore. I do on occasion to read
attachments or other stuff.
I love working with the iPhone but am not real crazy about the iPad. The
6plus has a wonderful speaker for listening to Bibles at night and music
anywhere.
I heard somewhere an iPhone 6x is supposed to be released. I don't want any
phone bigger than the six plus. The battery is wonderful though..
