Hello Harry and everyone. I'm working on a guide which will hopefully take iPHONE and iPAd owners from scratch to where they can thrive in iOS and know about a lot of the great apps out there. I've got over 120000 words written and there's still a daunting amout to do but I hope to have Personal Power: The iOS Edition ready by the end of the year. It'll be free for everyone. I hope to get Applevis to have the guide available on that marvelous site. To complement the guide itself, I plan to record a series of talks on each area I cover which will hopefullly help people who might not be skilled enough to read a document.
Loosing Voiceover-easy is terrible news. I was going to direct people seeking a different approach from my guide to that site as well as Anna's book among other places. Keeping VoiceOver-EZ going must have been a heck of a lot of work. I don't think anybody's done something remotely similar in terms of its adaptive capabilities to what the user owned. It has helped a good many people who I've directed there to become comfortable with iOS devices. I hope there's a way to contact the owner and thank him for the tremendous good he's done.
