I typically don't feel the need to flame, but wow: I don't know about the icrap devices, but in the ms phone world, your actually forced to acccept the terms of activesync in order to setup sync. and at any rate, there is no way that a simple security feature would be construed as "hacking" would german law also object to the blackberry, 10 wrong passwords and the device wipes? *disclamer, I'm a windows and exchange admin*
I am a systems administrator for a company that employs about 70% blind/low vision, about 25% of my users are blind/low vision. Trust me, I know what it takes to make a blind person productive.
most webpages out there are a complete disaster when it comes to a blind person finding stuff. the main exceptions are places like cisco.com (we have a blind network guy)
anything java = non accessable.
most programs out there, with the exception of office are difficult for the blind to navigate, it takes a lot of training for them to be able to do what a sited user can do with no training.
some programs, are just to hard to navigate.
I welcome this, this gives the blind/low vision users a better chance to be able navigate items that I take for granted, maybe then we can do something about the 75% unemployment in the blind community.
