Eah I'm a windows user more than a mac user and I've tried using the Microsoft rdp client for the mac and also the rdp client for the ipod at least one of the ipod rdp clients. And yeah, the ipod rdp clients don't have audio enabled as was said. But that's only the free ones I've tried. As for the rdp client for the mac, it works great with sound, allowing jaws to be heard through the interface. But as jaws is not on the mac, it isn't perfect sound and the interface is graphical. The only key press I could use was alt tab and ctrl escape. But what I'm currently working on with a co worker, who is sighted, is an ssh client with VO support / accessibility that will allow for connection to a windows / server machine and will allow for command line commands.
An dif that works, then look at an rdp client that lets VO see the icons in the window rdp terminal window. And hopefully control them with VO commands. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionar...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Joel Zimba Sent: Wednesday, 4 August 2010 7:30 a.m. To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: remote access from IPod. I have been thinking this would be great to have myself. I've also heard that gotomypc works via ipad and iphone. this is a web-based thingie. I have also mused that getting braille to work through the network wouldn't be so hard since it works so well via bluetooth. We live in interesting times and I would think this will be a very desirable thing in thenear future.
