RE: black berry accessibility

Because I refuse to pay for yet another device and another software package
that provides "special" accessibility.  I'm perfectly willing to buy a
device that has accessibility built-in.  Frankly, I'm beginning to be a bit
annoyed with the argument that blindness is a small market.

you totallydidn't get my message. I am not asking for rim to bring  
accessibility to us. because i believe the tools are already there.  
why aren't we doing it for ourselves?

No, seriously, folks, a big reason is probably that the blind and  
disabled
communities are seen as too small a market to be bothered with. Start  
making
noise, folks; as the old saying goes, it's the squeaky wheel that gets  
the
grease.
