Re: VO accessible FTP Client
Hi, I expect you will soon be berried in recomendations for transmit b Panic software. It is marvelous, and will handle all types of secure ftp transfers, as well as syncing your idiscs and .mac accounts and manual folders. It's your full featured, fully accessible off the shelf ftp client. Best, erik burggraaf A+ sertified technician and user support consultant.

Re: Anyone ever serviced an Emac?
Hey tim and thanks for the reply. The units don't make the chime sound and I can't here anything come to life internally. The cd drive has both its power and ide cables connected but I can't seem to find a ide cable for the harddrive so i'm assuming that that has also been removed however I see a spare power connector that would fit the harddrive. Based on this and on what you saying about the powrer button, would you say that these units quite lightly have broken logic boards? Again, thanks for the reply.

Re: VO accessible FTP Client
Thanks guys, I've been needing an FTP program and couldn't remember what the name of the one I've heard blind mac users talking about. Had thought it was transmition or some other automotive sounding name. It is called Transmit though? Very good to know.

Re: daisy player for IPhone
Sorry. The text to speech and gesture recognition require faster hardware which is currently only in the iPhone 3GS. Many expect a similar bump to the iPod touch this fall which implies the accessibility software will then work there as well. CB Jane Jordan (Gmail) wrote: That reminds me of something.

Re: daisy player for IPhone
Will, tell ya what, e-mail accessibil...@apple.com and hit them with the idea. I encourage you and anyone else to do so and explain the benefits etc. I have done this and the more folks that ask, the more likely it will be given consideration. Hey, it would be the first truly mainstream product on the market. I realize we are a minority, but you know with a little help, it is possible someone could develop an application to run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. I'm not saying Apple has to do it all, but for the purposes of authorizing the device, it may require a little help on Apple's part, but not entirely sure. Anything is possible.
