Hi Jackie,

I love it when that happens.  The sighted folks get even more excited about
the accessibility features than we do.  I recently learnt my phone to a
fully sighted friend and she almost didn't want to give it back to me she
enjoyed using Talks so much.  I eventually set her up with a 30-day demo.
