hello, certainly we are in a far more better condition as few years ago whitnessing the advanced technological development in the area of assistive technology making the life of vi more independent. but that doesn't mean that we can reduce the dependency on sighted people at greater extent. there are several reasons in my view and most importantly is that how many vi persons could really be benificial to these developments directly? still in remote areas where this technology is at the finger tips of sighted community like full of pocket with handsum mobile, beautifying shoulders with the akaash tablets offered under government schemes, etc but what about the vi people being aware of even dreaming of using the same independently? even if they are bit aware, what about such technical support offered to them nearby to their location? so in my view, the given deceit situation can't be remedied by linking with the use of such advanced technology fully unless we ourselves does not change to be alert and cautious of the things we are going to involve and its procedures, consequences, etc.
by making my such personal remark, don't intend to discover the fault of anyone but just wanting to convey that despite fully trusting the assistive technology if we rather use our own wakening sense towards the situation in front, many problems themselves be cured without any unexpected serious aftermaths and upshots. thanks, -- Regards, Mukesh jain Email: [email protected] [email protected] mailing list run by me (info page): http://mail.mukeshjain.org/mailman/listinfo website: www.mukeshjain.org Skype: mukeshjain211 Mob: 09977165123 "Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you.
