[Electronics-talk] talking kitchen timers?

[Ray Foret Jr]

I know as a fact that the NFB sells a very nice cheep timer which has four round buttons on it.

The very large button on the right turns the timer on and off.  The button to the left tells the time remaining.  The button to its left sets the minutes and the button all the way on the left sets the hours.  I'm quite sure that ILA sells the same timer.  This timer even comes with a magnetic belt loop.


Sent from my mac, the only computer with full accessibility for the blind built-in!

Sincerely,
The Constantly Barefooted Ray, still a very happy Mac and Iphone 5 user!

I called and asked if they had any that talked while setting it and they said no. Do any of you know of any that will talk me through setting it or just an accessible one? I am totally blind. Thank you.
