Hi,
Old-fashioned software again. It can't even read an Email in HTML? And we
still pay for this crap?
All the best

Can you send email in plain text as this is the convention used
on this list I think as I couldn't read your email with my
note-taker.
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Paul

<br/
I've always liked the Moto G range of phones as they run
stock android though recently people have been saying they
couldn't enable accessibility in terms of talkback without
sighted help. this shouldn't be an issue for you though
hopefully, all you'd have to do is tap accessibility on the
setup screen and go from there. I'd certainly go for one,
they haven't changed that much if at all since the Lenovo
take over apart from this recent accessibility issue.<br/

of trying one of the smart phones in a shop"
when ever I am thinking of getting either a phone or
tablet, I go to Tesco and ask them to show me one and turn
on accessibility so I can try it in the shop before
buying. I say Tesco because my experience with other
shops is bad. I find these very helpful.

<div>Hello Mo,</div
<div> </div
<div>Thanks for your speedy response.</div
<div> </div
<div>For most of the time I get by on the ipad with just the Zoom
features, Kindle app, etc. Have used voiceover sometimes but
mostly I can get by without it. I find most mobile screens too
small to cope with. My wife has iphone but I could not cope it,
but she has it set up for herself of course. She has good
eyesight.</div
<div>I can manage the Doro for numbers and text messages, but of
course it is unsmart!</div

<div>I have myopic macular degenerstion, with loss of central
