[Ohio-talk] iphone and voiceover

[C Tolle]

Can you tell me what it is that frustrates you about the touch gestures? This is not a situation where there is a physical impairment with your hands involved, right? If that is not the case, though it may take a little bit of time, you can master the gestures and your phone will not frustrate you rather it will be a window to the world for you.

I tried out an iphone at the apple store as well as someone else's.  I know you can buy a usb keyboard, but my counselor thinks this is unnecessary.  Therefore, is there any other way I can use the iphone without having to use the finger gestures? I know they make a tactile cover where you can feel the buttons, but I've yet to find the company who makes this.  Anyone who has an iphone or know someone who has one, what are my options if I cannot execute the finger gestures? They just don't work for me and I would get very frustrated every time I used my phone if I had to do it this way.  Any alternatives would be greatly appreciated.
