Actually, it probably is the lease used feature! LOL. Seriously, I use my
phone for so much more then just making/receiving calls! I have made
grocery lists in my phone. I have also scanned products to see what they
are. I've identified money. I could keep going but...

Progress is change and change disturbs some people. Now if Apple would
allow Verizon to carry their products, who knows, I might try it. Seems
that with the tiny keys used on many cell phones, a tocuh screen would be
easier once used to to it.
Your comment about making phone call,s was that an afterthought? Is
that the least used function of your phone? LOL

Though this topic is probably o/t for this list, i do have an iPhone, and
too thought the same before I tried it too. So, before you say something
is not accessible, consider the probably 200 or so totally blind
individuals who are successfully using the iPhone, the iPod touch etc.
Does it take some getting used to, oh yeah! But I can successfully
navigate to anywhere using a GPS ap, see what's on TV, I can successfully
send text messages, surfe the internet, listen to music/read books, get
up-to-date news information, chat with friends via IM, play games, and
not to mention make and receive calls.
So please, before you say something doesn't work, or is not accessible,
try it out first?

You said "The touch screen just doesn't make sense to me, and even
with speech, I don't consider it to be accessible."
Do you have a screen reader on your computer? If you do, then the
above comment is at oods with it.

I completely agree with you about touch screens. I've seen a friend's
iphone, and although he swears by the thing, I just didn't like it at
all. The touch screen just doesn't make sense to me, and even with
speech, I don't consider it to be accessible.Also, I don't like the
speech used by the apple products. If I could tolerate that speech, I'd
still be using the victor reader stream I used to have. I don't have a
dedicated note taking device because I can't afford anything like that,
but my desktop computer meets all my needs quite nicely, and I'm very
happy with my htcs743 cell phone. It can serve as a notetaker in an
emergency. I love my booksense, though, and hope that I'll be able to
enjoy using it for many years to come.

Many people get their notetakers through Rehab. Others get loans or
grants.
The Ipods might be fine for some who can't afford notetakers, but Ipods
don't meet my needs and I don't think I would like touch screens, even
if
they are "accessible." Besides, Ipods have too many features I wouldn't
even
use! I don't know if a person has to have AT&T to use the Ipod, although
I
know it's true for the Ipad and Iphone. Well, I'm happy with Verizon
Wireless and I won't switch to AT&T for any reason! I'll use my BSP as
long
as I can.
