News Wire:

On Monday, November 23 at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Standard time, Larry
Lewis, President, Flying Blind LLC http://www.flying-blind.com
 will be demonstrating netECHO, an accessible, phone-based web
application that enables individuals who are vision impaired to
perform a number of tasks using the world wide web.

netECHO, developed by InternetSpeech http://www.internetspeech.com
 allows its subscribers the ability to use either a land or cellular
phone line to access its server and issue commands through the sound
of oneâ?Ts voice or via the telephone keypad. netECHO is the perfect
solution for users who do not own a PC or mobile device as well as a
desktop or mobile screen reader, or for users who do own such devices,
but wish to have a secondary alternative for dealing with the
complexities of a graphical operating system.

In this demonstration, Lewis will surf the web, perform web searches,
send and receive e-mail, and complete other similar tasks using this
life-changing technology. He will conclude by discussing subscription
options and pricing.
