Hi Neil,

 

I think Kindle will win this little war hands down.

 

All the best

 

Steve

They are indeed, but they're not sold in some countries, such as the one I
live in, so accessible or not, they're not available.

Kindle books on the other hand are.

 

All the best,

 

Neil

Hi 

ibooks are fully accessible with voiceover on the mac products, can't speak
for other platforms or screen readers though.

Yeah, I wonder if a blind person can read books on the IPad though, I can't
test that because its not in my country yet, but its quite depressing how
inaccessible ebooks are for us. My uni can't even buy me the Adobe Digital
Editions version of ebooks because they are inaccessible, so we have to wait
ages for publisher's alternative formats and special permission and all
sorts of rubbish like that.
