[Electronics-talk] Talking microwave ovens

[Peter Donahue]

Good morning everyone,

Amen. We had one of those talking microwave ovens and found they were 
difficult for me to hear. Give me Braille labels any day. Any brand of 
microwave oven or other appliance can be labeled in Braille quite easily. If 
you don't know Braille learn enough to allow you to use your house-hold 
appliances independently and so your choice of appliance won't be 
restricted.

I'm not sure how this can be abusive. Do we know the manufacturer has
contacted Walmart to let them know this model has been discontinued and
won't be manufactured any more? Even if they did, wouldn't Walmart
change the availability to discontinued? Would this still be abusive?
I've seen plenty of other web sites, such as Amazon, continue to have
web sites for products that are no longer in stock or discontinued, and
I don't just mean products for the blind, so there's no way the blind
are being targeted for this so called abuse. IMHO, we have plenty of
legitimate battles to fight that we don't need to making up slights
where there aren't any.
