heard lots of good reviews on it. haven't tried it, because not sure witch email name to put on it. When just about all get a lot and well you know, don't want to spend all time on just email.

Also in the reviews it memtioned about keeping your contact list on a server for faster acsess.At 09:16 AM 1/16/2011, you wrote:For that example I was relying on statements made by Leo Laporte, a tech expert that runs a live video / audio podcast network at twit.tv. He says that the processor in the iPhone is not fast enough to perform the voice recognition, but the processing for this app is sent to a server. He has made that point several times. Normally, if he is wrong, his live chat quickly corrects him. I do not have my own iPod Touch to verify if this is true. I doubt if my wife would allow me to fiddle and experiment with hers.Don MarangThere is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working on things that matter.Dean Kamen -------------------------------------------------- From: "Trouble" <trouble1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 15, 2011 5:07 PM To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Screen Readers And Cloud Computingnot sure about this one, you saying that dragon2.0 for iPhone and iPod is ran from the cloud? Because the info on site don't say anything about it having to use the web. Just the social apps on the iPhone or iPod like, sms, email and doing texts.it acts just like dragon does on windows.

Cloud Computing is by definition very general and vague.Usually Computer Architects, Network Architects, and their Managers usePowerPoint presentations that show a local office network, say in New York, magically connected to a remote office, say in London, by drawing a physical puffy cloud in between them connected by simple lines. It is not concernedabout all of the technical details about the backbones and routers in between the two offices. It is not important for their purposes. It is treated like a black box. It just magically gets there through the cloud.Now they use this cute little cloud drawing to represent computing servicesprovided out on the Internet, somewhere out in the cloud. This can be any service to any type of device. It could include reading Gmail on the web, having Dragon recognize your voice from an IPhone, a video game server delivering rendered images to a TV set top box, or surfing the web from aChromeOS netbook (which has no knowledge of local storage). The user stillis not concerned about what hardware gmail is running on or where it is located. As has been the old argument between dumb terminals / central computing and local desktop computing, there is again a debate on which is best and where the control and data should be based. I personally like acopy of my data locally. Another problem with Cloud Computing for the blind community is that services on the cloud get updated automatically, which canbreak accessibility. Cloud services may also go down, lose connection, oron rare occasion lose data. Of course desktop / personal computing also hasdifferent, but similar problems. Much of Cloud Computing today is web based services and all that is needed from a screen reader is just being able to adequetely able to support the browser features. This might include active regions or Web Applications support. Of course, it does not have to be browser based, like the Dragon iPhone App and require a completely different Access Technology solution.
