Ok, first off, congrats on not letting limitations keep you from something you want to do. It took me several years to learn that I was the same person as before my hearing loss, just with a little...
do I need to "quote" how you and llg responded to the question? both of you took offense and by taking offense, it came off as p.issy. How would you describe your response? and "p.issy" was the word...
in time, I assume the blackberry will have that capability. It probably could, but from the way it was explained to me, you might need a second cellphone to do both functions. But, I may be wrong or...
its a simple procedure in logging in to the specific website via your iPhone, submitting your personal cellphone number and the number you are trying to reach. the website server does the rest. It...
