[Electronics-Talk] poorly designed electronics

[Rob Kaiser]

It occurs to me as I have told people before, that people (whether it be web
designers & electronic, cable companies ETC.) seem to plow ahead with
updating their systems without looking @ the big picture where the blind are
concerned.

Romeo Brailler by Enabling Technology and verizon fios cable box designed by
who knows?
When I was using the romeo, I was near a flight control tower.
When I use the verizon fios product I'm in ear shot of fire trucks going by
and close to a firehouse.
How these two products are similar is both of them get configurations messed
up by signals coming from flight control tower and firehouse.  Had to call
enabling technology to get the printer back in correct configuration.  This
morning I had text to speech working fine when tv turned on but give it a
few minutes and a fire call and try to change the channel and no text to
speech any more.
Either it's impossible to design electronics any better or it's not being
done by manufacturers for whatever reasons with cost probably near the top
of the list.
In past, I've been able to power the cable box off for a few minutes then
turn it back on and have it re-provisioned with my selected configuration,
but this is getting old fast.
