Mail Bag:
This week’s email comes to us from Michael Evers, who says:
Hi,
On the Serotalk Podcast for October 4, 2011, it was said that the telephone keypad was not accessible with the most recent Skype update using the iPhone 4. I installed the latest Skype update on my iPhone 4, and with a little playing around, I was able to make a call. It seems as though the 1 touch typing mode doesn’t work on the dial pad and so you have to tap twice on the dial pad in order for it to work. So tell the listeners to try that first and see if that will work for them. Hope this helps.
