[Ohio-talk] iphone and voiceover

[Deborah Kendrick]

Kelsey, 
The company that makes the screen protectors with dots is SpeedDots.

www.speedDots.com

If you already own any kind of braille display or braille notetaker,chances
are pretty strong that you can pair that device with an iPhone and thus use
the braille keyboard for input.  
This won't eliminate the need for gestures, but will greatly reduce it.
Hope this helps.

Deborah

Subject: [Ohio-talk] iphone and voiceover

Hello,
My counselor recommended I think about getting an iphone at some point.
However, the finger gestures to use voiceover do not work for me.  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.
Thank you,
Kelsey Nicolay
