Anyone tried the focus blue tooth with the iphone 4 yet? I hear it is supposed to work together? On 04/08/2010 09:55, john gallagher wrote:

There are accessible applications for obtaining train times, weather reports and detection of colours. I understand some have had joy with OCR as well. I really can't comment on their accessibility though. It is an interesting and evolving time for mobile technology.

I have Talks and Nokia handsets, so there would be no real purpose in my migrating to an iPhone and giving myself a lot of grief for nothing. The iTouch, however, with its extra storage capacity and usable applications, does interest me at a later date.

The iPhone is more of a two handed experience and somehow finding and dialing numbers on a busy street is difficult on a touch screen phone of that shape and with that functionality. In conclusion, iPhones work best at home. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Marie Baisez Sent: 03 August 2010 09:24 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: iphone Accessibility Features Visit the blcooltech site, lots of info and excellent podcasts on the subject there.
