[nabs-l] Your thoughts on touch screen

[Josh Gregory]

I see it as doable.  Can't stand smart phones myself.  But IPods 
seems usable.  Tapping an item once gives a description, tapping 
it twice activates it.  In this way you are able to learn where 
items are and become familiar with the interface.  I have an html 
file that I saved of how to use Voiceover, (basically the 
gestures and stuff) let me know if you want me to send it to you 
offlist.  And actually, anybody that does want that can let me 
know, just use my email address.

I've had issues with touch screens on cell phones.
I haven't used an IPod.

 What about the IPod, IPad, those types of devices? I have used
 these, and like them.  The voiceover is helpful, and, IMO, is a
 workable solution for this type of product/ device.

 Touch Screens are of the devil!
 Blind people, like myself, can't use them.
 Buttons are better.
 I don't have any notetakers now, but it's Pac Mate, all the way!

  Hi all,

  I'm doing research and am curious to know your thoughts on 
touch
  screen.  How do you feel about touch screen as more and more
 devices
  adopt this interface?  Do you love it, embrace it, hate it, a
 pain in
  the rear, or something in between...? Please share how you feel
 about
  it and be as thorough as you wish.

  Also, what kind of notetaker, PDA, mobile devices and mobile
 phones do
  you use now?

  Thanks.

  Phil
