Accessible World Tek Talk presents Navigon, a GPS Application for the           
          iPhone, Monday, October 25, 2010

News Wire:

 

Dear Friends,

You are cordially invited to attend our Tek Talk program in which John Gunn a 
consumer and a staunch member of our audience will discuss Navigon, a GPS 
Application for the iPhone to be used by all persons.

 

In John's own words: There are several applications for the iPhone and I would 
like to discuss and demonstrate Navigon.  The demonstration will include 
setting up Navigon as well as taking a ride in a car so that you can see 
firsthand how this Application works as a GPS device.  

 

I plan to hold a relaxed and hopefully an informative presentation.  This 
application is one of many you can purchase from the iTunes store and it's 
written for sighted users, however, visually impaired users can take advantage 
of this as well.  

 

It is amazing how all users can share a mainstream application.
