[nabs-l] Calling all iPhone users

[Anjelina]

Hi Ben,
I can't say enough good things about the iPhone. It does have a bit of a 
learning curve, but nothing that a week or so can't cure. The majority of 
the apps I've installed are fully accessible with voiceover. I've used a few 
of the free recognition apps, and I've had success identifying labels, 
dollar bills and even print pages.
www.blindcooltech.com
has many iPhone podcasts. If you can stop in an Apple or AT&T store to get 
some hands-on experience with the phone before making a purchase you might 
not feel as intimidated by the phone. The Apple reps I've spoken with are 
very familiar with Voiceover.
Good luck with whatever you choose.
