That would be like telling apple to charge for voice over. Talk Back is
an integral part of ICS now and as such, Code Factory needs to be the
best if they want to sell their products. There are a multitude of free
or nearly free options that are available. If Code Factory is to stay
the leader in assistive technology, they need to be on the cutting edge.

on their products then we might just appreciate life a little better.

Accessibility
few months? only a few months? I seem to recall people asking for
things to be fixed for at least a year! things in the browser
just for starters. you still can't download using it, you still
can't stream using it, ETC. not only that, there is no virtual
d-pad and that would be extremely helpful! I have to use the
eyes-free keyboard for this reason under ICS, as I don't have a
keyboard, and MA doesn't work at all with the eyes--free
keyboard. ok, braille is a good thing, but first of all I can't
afford a braille display, and I don't know too many blind persons
that can. not only that, you are walking down the street and you
get an sms. what you are going to pull out your braille display
just to read it? not very practical. the way I see it, other
things should hav been fixed/improved along with the braille
stuff, or do this stuff before doing the b raille support, but
that is just me.

You took the words out of my mouth. The last i heard, contacts
were still being synced with google weather you liked it or not
and it still wasn't possible to send an sms over 3 lines long. not
to mention bugs with email i.e not moving messages to the bin. If
braille is the only item that's been added for support just
because the iPhone had it first, then its quite disappointing.
don't get me wrong, braille is a priority but don't be like
freedom scientific. adding more features and not fixing your
existing bugs!

Code Factory's Mobile Accessibility: first ever software
application that allows the use of a Braille display on Android!
Terrassa (Barcelona), Spain, May 24th 2012
After launching Mobile Accessibility in March 2011 and with more

Once more, we have listened to our customers and turned their
desires into reality.
"Based on the tremendous response from our customers, we have been
more than motivated to keep improving this product and make the
impossible possible: add Braille support for the first time on
this platform" says Eduard Sanchez, CEO. "Our ambition is to keep
improving our products and keep up with the constant OS updates
and add new features that add value to our products."
This free upgrade is available for all our customers, whether
purchased in Google from one of our distributors, the free
download version of AT&T Mobile Accessibility Lite from AT&T, or
Wireless Accessibility from Sprint, Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile
USA. It includes the following Braille features:
*a.* Use the power of a Braille display in the same way as on a
computer and similar to what is available with Mobile Speak 4 and
above.
*b.* Enabling a solution for Deaf Blind users to be able to use
Android devices for the first time.
*c.* Ability to use various grades, including grade 1 / 2 and
computer Braille for both input and output.
*d.* Option to disable speech when Braille is turned on,
allowing users to work in silent environments like meetings.
Devices of the following Braille device manufacturers are
supported: Baum, Eurobraille, Freedom Scientific, Handytech, HIMS,
