didn't the banks once have a tactile layout for the keys and a description

Hope to hear from you soon.

: Hi.
:
: Thinking about this one, it would be awkward at the moment.
:
: You would need to be using a cash point and holding your mobile as well.
: You would be a mugger's dream.
:
: This being said, I don't see why the banks could not have accessible
: documents on their websites containing step by step guides on how to use
: their own machines.  That way if you knew which machine you would have to
: use you could download information about that machine either at home 
before
: you set out or on your mobile while you are out.  This could apply to much
: more than cash machines of course.  it could work with fast ticket 
machines
: and vending machines too.
:
: This is not of course perfect as not everyone has access to the web or wap
: pages and remembering long sequences of keys can be difficult but in the
: short term, accessible documents with information about key sequences 
would
: be a start and a positive step forward.

: hi, if the speech could be incorporated into a mobile, then fine. but it
: would seem like a lot of fiddle and fuss (possibly even expense) just to 
put
: in a 4 digit pin code to do your weekly shopping! smile. now if it could 
be
: developed to cover other, currently inaccessible/awkward facilities, then

: stations, things like that, then it would be a real step forward!
