Hi Tracy. I am Lewis Crack, 21 years old, and am totally blind and hard of hearing.
I have an iPod Touch, iPhone and Macbook and I love the lot. I also find it easier to navigate by tactile buttons, but I am extremely good at navigating a touchscreen. I bought a Freedom Iconnex Keyboard for £22, but it was the cheap model and I couldn't get it to work. I would avoid it if you can. Get the one that costs around £47.99. I am hoping to get one in the future. Hope to chat soon and it is good to know you. Lewis. :) On 10 Sep 2011, at 18:40, tracy wrote: > Sure does!
