Dear Bird Talk, Last winter while in Panama City Beach, I purchased an e-mail machine. This machine is for sending and receiving e-mails only. I found I could keep in touch with my family and friends anywhere in the world, where there was a telephone/110 volt plug-in. The machine is called a VTech (1-888-468-8324) in […]
