Hi David,

I don’t mind getting my hands dirty, so to speak.

I was asking about the best for a totally blind person as I really don’t know 
what kind of accessibility is on this platform.  some say it’s lagging behind 
the i phone, and others say it’s on par now.  As long as talk back or one of 
the other screen readers can give enough feedback so that I don’t need a pair 
of working eyes, weak or not, then life is good.
