Well I'm going to correct you slightly here, I didn't say it was more accessible I said that some people would consider it more accessible given that the interface is different and yep, I'll write you off list with further details.

I'm not going to comment much on this as its getting to be off topic but
your comment is very subjective.  Some may say that the Android devices
are - in some respects - more accessible than the IOS devices and we're
seeing steady progress as development in this area continues.

But the iPhone still has something well over the android, that being
accessibility.

The big area where apple is playing catch up is by using the cloud. The
ability to sync between devices, and not having to use itunes nearly as
much. Also, speech recognition and the ability to dictate text, android
has had this for quite some time. Android still provides free turn by turn
directions, but this must be purchased for the iphone. The iphone is also
more expensive, don't get me wrong, the iphone is a good product, but many
of the things apple is introducing are already on android. One thing that
is important for me is the ability to connect an android phone to a
computer, and it will show up as a drive, I can simply copy and delete
files. Compared to android, the iphone is a bit restrictive.

Maybe somebody can explain to me how ios5 is playing catch up with
Android for blind users. Other perspectives aren't especially important
for us as blind users, right? So on the Android phones, I must have a
physical navigation method. No touch screen only devices. Which duel core
Android phones with 8mp cameras and  a gb of ram plus voice assistant
will be available to me? Are they  gsm capable as well as cdma? What will
they cost? In other words, let us please compare apples and apples here,
no pun in tended. I don't care if an all touch screen phone has a  bigger
screen, slightly faster processor and lets me use external bluetooth
devices. If I can't navigate and use the phone to its full potential, why
on earth would I want it?
