Doesn't the small screen cause problems for aging eyes like ours?


Smart phones allow you to blow up or size down by simply stroking the
screen in certain ways and to change the font sizes

One word at a time. I find on my iPod, if I take my glasses off,
I can bring the screen into focus, and it is just large enough to be
readable. Of course, it is also about three inches from my nose, but
