Hey KliphnShari, Would you be willing to write a guest post for my companies blog about your switch to iOS and the iPad? I am looking for positive stories about visually impaired people using technology in their everyday lives. If so you could email me off list at ed@overhereconsulting.netIf not that’s fine too. I guess this goes out to all of the people on this thread too.
