That's what I thought and still do, yet the wave of the future is away from net books/laptops and to smart phones and tablet devices.

    Dani,

    The problem is that much of what is being complained about are
    limitations that have existed since the beginning.  An S MS client
    that spans multiple messages, allows you to select links including
    multiple ones, allows for inserting pictures and audio for M MS,
    and emoticons, a contact manager that allows the assignment of
    ringtones, an email client that offers full imap and pop3 support
    and isn't just limited to gmail, a web browser that allows for the
    downloading of files, streaming of multimedia, accesses frames,
    flash content, and displays all webpage content a Virtual d-pad on
    their keyboard.  There are so many free options that if Talkback
    or spiel offers braille support or if Google through eyes-free
    offers it as a separate app, there will be little need to buy
    Mobile Accessibility on phones running ICS or higher.

You know, not trying to be rude, but here's something to ponder. At least we have a screen reader. We should be greatful for what
    we have.  A year or so ago, I never would've thought that
something like this existed, and I am so greatful to Cf. Everything needs work, but they're trying, and complaining about
    it isn't getting anyone anywhere.  So I just say, thank you to
    Codefactory for giving this product to us.

    you should listen to my podcast on ICS with MA.  it leaves a lot
    to be
    desired.  if you want to hear it.  go to

    www.jjhof.com/android/ics/podcast07.mp3

    That is something I emailed cf this morning about.  More
    features.  When
    reading about updates, the only thing it said was braille
    support.  while
    that is ok and all, a lot of people will not benifit from that
    cause braille
    devices are higher than they need to be and people just don't
    have monies to
    spend on that sort of thing.  Well, some don't anyway.  Along
    with righting
    on this list, I also incurrage u all to actually email cf
    directly.  It may
    get some ware and it may not but at least u tried.

    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
    than 35.000
    downloads worldwide, Code Factory has worked for months to make
    Braille
    display usage possible with the product.  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.

    supported: Baum,
    Eurobraille, Freedom Scientific, Handytech, HIMS, Humanware and
    Optelec.
