since voice over is baked into Ios, it probably adds ten dollars or less
to the overall cost of the phone. What makes the iPhone so expensive is
Apple trying to sell itself on the cool factor and try to charge maximum
price. The iPhone costs less then $200 to produce.

IPhone is so expensive because of the Voice Over probably. Georgie Phone is
a one-time price for the product. However it is great. Here's the contact
infor for Denise and Alan Kemp, who can get you fixed up and will give you a
14-day trial and will work with you if need be....

Subject: Re: [MA] Phones with a physical keyboard
I, too, would buy an IPhone Q if it were ever a reality. I also believe
there would be enough sighted people that would do the same, making it
worthwhile to produce. I heard Steve Jobs was against making any device with
keys, so I think this is wishful thinking on our parts. It would be nice if
one manufacturer would produce a high-end phone with a physical keyboard.
Mid-range phones are fine for now, but may not have physical keyboards in
the future either. I'm glad I bought my phone when it first came out to get
as much out of it as I possibly can. My contract runs out in October 2014,
so it'll be interesting to see the state of smartphones at that point.
