[Electronics-talk] Issues with Cox remote top boxes

[cheez]

does anyone know why Apple seems to be the only company that is 
conscientious of the blind community?

heads of the developing team members.  It gets frustrating when it seems the 
technology is their, and companies either drag their feet to produce, or 
they just don't give a care about us.
