Hello Keith,
Thanks for the kind note you wrote here. Yes, those are good questions
that you raise. It is why I thought to inquire here, that sensible
minds may have some good things to say. A Palm has just a smaller
screen. I thought about the sale they had, but then let the hours
pass, until it was gone.
I am going to try a download tonight now of the Bible+ software.
Thank you for the kind offer. First I will see about a download, and
get something here at hand, then I will remember your offer.
Gratituity from me here now.
