Just my two cents, I receive emails from many sighted people that say sent from their iphone at the bottom of the message. You wouldn't believe the number of typos and missing letters that I get. Same with the blackberry. there are some sighted people who can't use the iphone or other such phones effectively. My brother, who is sighted, turned on the vo features on his iphone just to see. He was impressed by how easy it is to use even for someone not used to accessing technology through speech. So, by all means i hope they listen. their previous track record suggests they are more concerned with protecting turf or pushing their own agenda than they are in giving an honest appraisal of the iphone or any new technology for that matter.
