[nabs-l] Smart Phone for Blind users

[Sophie Trist]

I agree. It doesn't sound like it has as much potential as the 
iPhone. And it didn't mention anything about audio. Few if any 
apps would be accessible using this phone. Besides, most of us 
are so used to typing on Qwerty-style keyboards now tha we would 
actually be a little slower on braille-style keyboards. I do, 
however, think it would be a good beginner phone for younger 
blind children.

You know how they do things!
Something comes out, and then, when something else becomes 
accessible,
they slowly want to compete, and it takes a while for them to 
make it
accessible!
Why can't they do things at the same speed, and at the same time?
Technology changes, so fast, but it takes the companies a while 
to
make the new technology accessible.
What's up with that?
Blessings, Joshua

 It's a cool idea, but it's a little late. From what I've heard, 
the
 iPhone is really accessible. If this smart phone had come out a 
couple
 of years ago, it would be a different story.

 I totally agree. THis will probably not do as well as they think 
it will.
