[stylist] OFF topic

Thu Sep 5 21:46:30 UTC 2013

So far, I've yet to encounter something with my IPhone I wasn't able to
do accessibly with the voiceover. Not to say that a function or app
isn't accessible, but I just haven't ran into it yet.

Well, wait, the ABC player's pause/stop button doesn't seem accessible,
but that's no big deal. On the actual phone, I've not had problems
emailing, texting, ringing, using the notes and reminders feature, using
the alarm clock, accessing internet, etc. So far, all accessible.

I with you, but I think we are stucj with the I phone if we want ful
accessibility. Androids are somewhat accessible, and from what I heard,
with in the next year to year and a half, they may catch up.

I was curious about the android because I like the company better. I am
not an Apple fan, the phylosphy part of it. It is that sort of thing.
LOL

I don't shop at Walmart and I don't eat Hurshey, you know, vote with
your dollars as they say, but I also need to vote a yes to technology
for the blind with them as well, and I do like the gps idea. I could
sure use that.

Thanks folks,
Atty
