You may use www.160by2.com to send free sms and it's very much accessible 
with screen reading softwares like Jaws. The only thing is that It has got a 
limitation that one can send only 50 SMS per day.

Hope this serves your purpose.

[AI] latest developments in preventing blindness

2009-05-06 Thread Naushad


Remodelling the eye - latest developments in
preventing blindness
At the Bristol Eye Hospital, in the South West of England, researchers 
from the University of Bristol
have made an exciting discovery that could result in 'remodelling' cells 
in the eye. This could have a

major impact on eye damage that results from disease of the retina.
For most of us, the first thing we think of when considering our 
perception of the world around us, is our
sight. So any impairment of sight or damage to the eyes can be 
particularly traumatic. A common cause of

blindness results from disease in the retina.
In the brain, stem cells – or neural progenitor cells as they are also 
known – can be ‘switched on’ to
generate a range of cell types required to repair damage to the brain. 
But although the retina consists of
neural (nerve) tissue that is similar to the brain, it has always been 
understood that it does not contain

progenitor cells that could be made to help repair the eye.
Professor Andrew Dick, Head of Bristol University’s Division of 
Opthalmology, found this difficult to
accept and, as a consequence, he and his research team have recently 
reported the first evidence of
progenitor cells in the retina. This is an extremely important landmark 
that might ultimately lead to a whole

new area of
treatment for retinal disease.
Already they have a research programme that has been able to grow 
progenitor cells from biopsies of
human retina. They are now looking at what conditions are required to 
turn them into various cell types
such as nerve cells or photo receptor cells. If they can understand 
that, then they are well on the way to

controlling eye disease by helping the injured retina to restore itself.

Re: [AI] Experience at the polling booth

2009-05-06 Thread Vamshi. G
Actually, my name got deleted from the voting list and hence didn't
write to the list.  But now, I thought I could atleast discuss the
accessibility view point.
To start with, the polling booth was not accessible as the staircase,
which one has to climb to enter into it, didn't even have railling to
take support, forget about ramps.
  There was no ballot paper in braille and the authorities weren't aware of it.
Don't know about braille labelling on the EVM as I was not allowed there.
I live in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh.

 within the visually challenged community of India of which a predominant
 group of persons despite the privilege of being in the country refuse to
 participate in elections, whereas a tiny group of persons living abroad are
 really interested to participate in the electoral process.

You may use www.160by2.com to send free sms and it's very much accessible

[AI] Windows 7 really worth waiting for?

2009-05-06 Thread Renuka Warrier
The Hindu News Update Service
 
News Update Service

Windows 7 really worth waiting for? 

By Tim Anderson 

GUARDIAN NEWS SERVICE: With the launch of the Windows 7 release candidate, 
anticipation is growing over Microsoft's new OS. So, asks Tim Anderson, is the
upgrade really worth waiting for? 

The new Windows is edging closer to release. This week, Microsoft has made the 
release candidate (RC) available to anyone who wants to try it; and although
the company has not announced the final release date, Acer's UK managing 
director, Bobby Watkins, recently told the press that machines with Windows 7
installed will be on sale from 23 October. 

Despite its name, there is no chance that the release candidate version will be 
the final one. Rather, it is the last round of testing before completing
the software and issuing it to PC vendors. Acer's date looks plausible, 
allowing two or three months for Microsoft to finalise the software, and the 
same
again for vendors to prepare and distribute Windows 7 PCs. 

Feeling positive 

Early adopters are mainly positive. Much better than Vista and just as stable 
as XP, writes a user on the unofficial Windows 7 forums (sevenforums.com),
and that view appears typical. The sense is that Microsoft has done a better 
job than with Vista, partly because the core operating system is little changed,
freeing resources to work on refining performance and usability. 

With Vista they were trying to do lots of major plumbing changes, but that 
created lots of issues. Windows 7 is more [about] enhancing the user 
experience,
explains Annette Jump, a research director at Gartner. 

Although Windows 7 has much in common with Vista, there is still a long list of 
new features. The most obvious is the enhanced taskbar. In Vista, this shows
icons for programs that are running, but in Windows 7 you can also launch 
applications, making it a single place both for starting programs and for 
switching
between them. There are both thumbnail and full-screen previews as you hover 
the mouse over taskbar icons, making switching easier than before. In the
RC this also works for keyboard-switching with the alt and tab keys. 

Another area of focus is home networking. Windows 7 HomeGroup - which only 
works among Windows 7 machines - is a shared group of machines controlled by
a computer-generated password, and enables sharing of documents, printers, 
music and videos. A new feature in the latest release is remote streaming, which
lets HomeGroup members access media across the internet, though it depends on 
correct firewall settings and a link with a Windows Live online account.


Microsoft has also realised many business users take laptops home, and allows a 
PC to join a HomeGroup as well as a business network. Business documents
are protected from inadvertent sharing, though some administrators may still 
forbid this. 

My absolute favourite feature would have to be the Libraries function, says 
Peter Dzomlija on the Windows 7 forums. I no longer have to manage four 
different
videos folders. Libraries lets you create a virtual view of several real 
folders, so that they appear as one. The snag is that users may struggle to 
distinguish
the links from the real thing. 

Even Microsoft is concerned about this. In the beta of Windows 7, you could 
link a folder to a library by drag-and-drop. But what if a user thought a copy
of the folder had been made, and deleted the original? Since the library only 
contains a link, they would lose work. Microsoft has therefore removed the
drag-and-drop method of linking in the RC - though links still have the 
potential to confuse. 

Windows 7 has a mountain to climb in persuading people to upgrade, though. 
According to figures from Net Applications (http://bit.ly/winseven3), some 70%
of Windows installations are still XP, with just 27.5% on Vista, even though 
that has been out for more than two years. There are several reasons why:
in the consumer market, the growing popularity and sales of netbooks extended 
the life of XP because Vista was too resource-hungry to fit on them. Microsoft
claims to have fixed this with Windows 7, tuning performance for low-end as 
well as high-end devices. 

Second, larger businesses never upgrade in a hurry. Enterprises usually take 
12 to 18 months from the beginning of a new OS to the time when they are ready
to deploy it, explains Jump. The reason is not only caution, but also to give 
time for custom business applications to be tested and upgraded. Third,
many users were simply not persuaded of Vista's merits. Many early adopters had 
a poor experience, and although the latest Vista machines are likely to
work much better, its reputation remains tarnished. A growing number of 
companies are looking at skipping Vista altogether, says Jump. 

But a key, and just-announced, feature in Windows 7 to persuade XP owners 
reluctant to let go of their carefully

Re: [AI] Compatibility of blackberry phone with talks or speech.

2009-05-06 Thread Pranav Lal
I know of no screen readers that work on Sony phones. Screen reader
compatibility is a function of the operating system that a particular phone
uses. For example, if a mobile phone uses Symbian, then a screen reader such
as talks may work with that phone. However, we then come to the issue of
digital signatures. Mobile phone operating systems need files to be
digitally signed before they are installed. I understand that some
manufacturers have not issued such a signature for talks. I would assume the
same is the case for mobile speak.

[AI] experience at polling booth

2009-05-06 Thread prateek aggarwal
Folks,
This was the first time I’ve casted vote for loksabha election, and
I’m happy that election commission has taken great step in order to
enable visually impaired people in participating in country’s
development and to enforce their right of constructing nation.
If I talk about my experience, perhaps you can deduce by my expression
until now, that the experience was gratifying.
As jaipur is the capital of rajasthan, it was prevailing providing
necessary facilities to visually impaired folks.
In fact, I have found the booth accessible as there were no staircase.
Also, I’ve seen ramps available there.
Though there was a lot of  crowd, but I had been given priority to
vote above all of them.
I had been provided a dummy ballot paper in Braille which had
information about candidates name, their associated number on EVM, and
their party. I’ve also liked that the dummy ballot paper was in hindi
which insured the participation of almost all the folks who want to
cast their votes.
After I decided the candidate to be voted and noted his number in my
brain, I had been taken in the ballot room, where I found the EVM with
Braille levels on it.
There was no trubble in finding the number what I’ve decided, and I
pressed the  button in frunt of the desired number.
Whole staff there was very supportive, and they have assisted me in
moving during entire process.
Thanks to EC for providing such fruitful facility.
Here, I’d like to tell, that a blind welfare organization call
“rajasthan netraheen kalian sangh” situated in jaipur was given
responsibility to publish dummy ballot papers in Braille for all the
25 constituencies of rajasthan which they have successfully completed
a few days back. Therefore, I hope that at least all the friends in
rajasthan will have the same prolific experience.
With profound regards,
Prateek agarwal.
