ADISCUSSION OF THE NEW BOOK: GETTING STARTED WITH THE IPHONE,AN INTRODUCTION
FOR BLIND USERS, FEB. 21, 201

I know this is a bit off topic but it was the hot topic last night at class.
So I thought I would forward this info. Afterall, won't an I phone make a
world of difference in our crafting? Oh, the color identifiers and such.
