[Electronics-Talk] FW: Smartphone for visually impaired people

[Andy Baracco]

I do not believe that a specialized product of this kind is necessary. The 
iPhone is a mainstream product that already incorporates the features 
mentioned. There are also accessories offered through 3rd party vendors such 
as tactile screen protectors and even a remote control that add 
accessibility for people who have special needs. I think that the time for 
specialized products in this arena has long since passed.
