Hi all, the issue with Internet access at the ACB Convention is quite 
complex, and most definitely frustrating. On the screen was a button that 
needed to be pressed to signify your agreement with the terms and 
conditions. Some screen readers had trouble seeing this button, and the 
hotel advised that pressing alt-I would access the I Agree button. The 
BrailleNote was not seeing this button either, and under Windows CE, I 
don't believe keyboard shortcuts are supported. I was not able to find out 
what kind of technology was making the button, but it could possibly have 
been a kind of Javascript that Pocket IE wasn't seeing. Had the I agree 
Button been a standard button, KeyWeb would have been able to see it, so 
we are dealing with an accessibility issue here.

I would be interested in knowing whether other devices using Pocket IE 
could see this button.

In most cases, I have found that wireless access works very well, but in 
some cases, like this one, the way the pages are constructed creates a 
road block.
