iPhones/iPods

[Guest guest]

Thanks for all the help. I just found this this morning on the Shafer Autism

Report. I copied and pasted what I could, but at the end is a link to the

review web-site. I hope it works.

The link to today's SAR is:

And you'll need to scroll to the app article.

Good Luck to all and thanks again for the help.
