Just as well the income became so much more.My iPhone is no better, in fact probably worse, as a phone than the original one, but my what a lot of other things it can do (though I would rather it was still the better phone). The mobile phone has completely changed personal interaction hasn't it? Any photograph in town will have several people in it referring to a miniature screen just in front of their face. Something I would never have expected. Frank D On Sunday, 3 May 2015, 1:49, Lluis Ripoll <lluisripollphotography at gmail.com> wrote: Thank you Jim!
