[bcab] Re: buying a new mobile phone

I did hear roomers of a project (I think in the Netherlands) to make touch 
screens accessible. The VI user would be able to use the four corners of the 
screen (one for back, one for forwards, one for enter etc). I am not sure if 
this is being used for mobile phones but I think it may be being rolled out for 
some ticket/cash machines over there. Next time I go I will try to get some 
more information.
PS other thought! I think the idea was thought up in the 80s so someone owns 
the rights to it but I am not sure who or how/if/when it is being used.
Sorry this is very vague but it is all the info I have. Perhaps some sort of 
open source program could be created to sit between software layers to take the 
screen layout and re-organize/adapt it for the VI user!

Wow, if they actually had software that would make a blackberry accessible that 
would be wonderful. I am not into the touch screen phones all that much but 
last blackberry I looked had the keyboard and was a nice looking phone. What, 
if any info is  out there on work for accessibility of these phones? Just 
curious. Last time I had a phone sort of like what I want was a sampsung 
blackjack but I had serious issues with windows mobile freezing up all the 
time. Just something that is reliable and sterdy would be great. So far it's my 
nokia 6682 but it's starting to get out of date and time for something better.

  Hi Sharon,

   

  Some good ones to look at now, are the N79 and the N85. You may also like the 
N96, though personally, I find it a bit chunky. It works fine with Talks 
though.  Also, if you like QWERTY keyboards, then the E71 may be one to look at.

   

  All the best

   

  Steve

  Hi all,

  Sorry this is slightly off topic.

   

  I want to buy a new mobile handset. I use talks. Can anyone recommend a newer 
model as I'm finding it difficult to work out which is the newest phone as the 
lists I see have lots of phones which are now discontinued and numbers are not 
any indication of their date of production.

   

  Regards

  Sharon
