This is just a quick video on where we are with accessibility for Android, and what I think would be an interesting thing to see on Android, as far as accessibility for people who have poor vision is concerned.

  • Who would that be put out by? Sounds great!

  • @GPHnMobile It'll be put out by the National Braille Press.

  • Oh but I wish I could wait. My phone died about a week ago... I went in to get a new one... had to settle for a cheesy temporary phone...and now...I only have 30 days to either keep it or swap it out. Ugh...the pressure is on. My decision/ financial investment is gonna have to happen really soon :( Not familiar with the Braille Wizard. What's that all about?

  • @GPHnMobile Android in a braille keyboard with 20 cells of braille, GPS, WiFi, 32 GB of storage, GSM, Bluetooth, a camera, pretty much everything you want.

  • Are the Android "incredible" or "Droid 2" accessible yet? Or do I still need a tactile keyboard? Haven't heard an update on this in a while. Advice?  Thanks! :)

  • @GPHnMobile Droid 2 should be, not sure about the incredible. I'd just wait for the Braille Wizard.

  • Hey, been checking out the Androids but not sure which one is workable for someone with sight problems. I've done some research but seems like there's no extra current info out there. The lines of communication have gone quiet. I'm really diggin' the "Incredible" and the "Droid X" phone. Are the Eyes-Free apps accessible for these phones? Do I still need a tactile keyboard?

  • @nightwatcher3344 On Verizon, there's the Samsung Haven.

  • do u know if there r any cheaper cell phone services and plans without the touch screen r accessible? such as the LG runor 2 on the virgin mobile network?

  • Oh I'm pretty sure that there will be a way around that, or else why would there be all that talk about it that I've been reading.
