Hi Gordon,
You tried the Kindle app for iPhone? It is completely
inaccessible.
All the best
Steve

You can also use epub format books saved to your apple
product from other
sources than the ibook store.
And indeed there is the kindle ap for the
iphone/ipad/ipod touch devices.

Add to that I'm hearing that there are simply not as

are Kindle books, though, not having access to iBooks I
can't bverify that

people are able to get
a title via Amazon Kindle which is not yet sold on the
iBooks platform.
It would be interesting to know how many titles are
available in the
iBooks store in those countries which have it.
I do suspect though that, from what I have seen,
theApple iBooks
categories make a bit more sense than do the Amazone
ones, and at least you
can access the store directly on the devices you're
meant to read the books
on!

I agree Gordon, but they are extortionately
over-priced, and they won't
do
well unless they drop their costs a bit.

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.
