Case #15: Audio
[George's accent comes accenting its way over the airwaves. Like a herd of cows who have busted through their pasture's fence in pursuit of greener grass and are also, incidentally, from Newfoundland.]
I'm afraid I've been having a bit of trouble with this device these past two days. I suppose I must have pressed some button on it, or held it in some way that it dislikes. Negotiations are still a bit strained.
But it has gotten me thinking about how I use this device. It occurs to me that I nearly always use the moving picture option. Now, I can understand my eschewing of the writing function: I'm a rather slow typist, and I've come to the conclusion that knowing that other people are able to see me makes me feel more as if I'm having a chat with them face to face...even if I'm unable to see their faces. And even though I don't particularly like being watched. ...And also I find I like to have my hands free when speaking. Has anyone else noticed they're more likely to use their device in a certain way?

I thought I might check in to make sure everything was going alright for you. If you need anything at all, even just a chat, don't hesitate.
