iPhone with the built-in voice over screen reader + an iPhone case that has
a slide-out Bluetooth qwerty keyboard. You can get the cases on Amazon for
like $20. It's an amazing combo. 

I suggest the Bluetooth keyboard cases for anyone using voiceover on the
iPhone. I actually don't know why any blind people have iPhones without them
because typing on a touch screen, even with voiceover, is so ridiculous.

I have found universal design fantastic in smart phones.  Also, EBooks, when
they are accessible, are fantastic.  Culturally it is a nice touch when I
can easily down load a new book when my friends and colleagues are reading
it.  The only thing stopping me now is work eating into relaxation time.

Hi all,

I don't always keep up with technology, as much as I should and I wonder if
people  had suggestions about the best recent developments in terms of
technology for the blind, be it hardware, software etc.?

Ger
