Hi, Kevin: You can use any old iTunes. It won't ask you to sync, or do any harm. It will just let you turn on Universal Access features. Please post this to the list, as I can't. Of course if you don't mind.

Can you simply tell me how to turn v o on and off on his device so I can give it a try.

That said, it's included on every iPhone 3GS and the newer iPod Touch. Previous models didn't have the hardware performance to run this so there is no upgrade to get VO on the older devices.

So they define the new in terms of what's known from the past, but when something is a revolution rather than an evolution the comparisons fail. Some will lodge those failures as the fault of what was being measured and dismiss it as being flawed. Others, more rarely, will correctly realize that the measurement framework has failed and reevaluate their worldview. The NFB has been measuring sharks for a long while and Apple brought in an leopard. It will take time for the definition of 'good' to be redefined.
