   Does anyone know an iPhone user who you could entice to give     
   the Telegram + @Fido2telebot solution a try?   
      
   I use it on a modest Blackberry Q10 (Android 4.3) myself.  The     
   screen is not ideal for incoming originally wide lines (the     
   body of the text tends to honour the presence of hard CRs., and     
   the since the screen is a perfect 2"x2" square, there is no     
   landscape-view option.  However, I understand that smartphones     
   with 16:9 screens can be tilted horizontally to get a better     
   representation of some messages that arrive in the original 70-    
   80char per line form.   
      
   And.. I also use the desktop version which I find is the     
   easiest way to produce a reply.
