 Mobile Accessibility: Code Factory Goes Android!
 
 Features Touchscreen Navigation, Speech Recognition, Web and Email Access,
 and Nuance’s Vocalizer® Text-to-Speech
 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
 Terrassa (Barcelona), Spain, March 2nd, 2011
 
 Today, Code Factory is delighted to introduce Mobile Accessibility, a
 screen-access application that allows people who are blind or have low
 vision to use
 an Android phone in an intuitive, easy and simple way. Mobile Accessibility
 is the first accessible Android application that permits intuitive
 touchscreen
 navigation of Android phones, featuring text readback via natural sounding
 voices powered by Nuance’s Vocalizer® text-to-speech technology.
 
 “Mobile phones have proved to be among the fastest-changing consumer
 technologies in the world – particularly with the advent of the Android
 platform. So
 making mobile phones accessible to the blind and visually impaired is
 therefore challenging, fascinating, thrilling and totally exciting all at
 the same
 time,” explained Eduard Sánchez, Code Factory’s CEO. “There was no doubt
 that we would target the  Android platform, as we very quickly realized that
 there
 was a real need in this specific market for an accessible solution that can
 provide a user-friendly experience for all blind and low-vision consumers.
 Mobile Accessibility allows everyone, from beginners to the most tech-savvy,
 to use an Android phone, no matter if it has physical keys or is
 touchscreen-only.”
 
 Mobile Accessibility is two products in one:
 
 • A suite of 10 accessible applications (Phone, Contacts, SMS, Alarm,
 Calendar, Email, Web, Where am I, Apps and Settings) that have been
 specially designed
 for the blind and visually impaired. They all have a simplified interface
 whose textual information is spoken using Nuance Vocalizer® voice synthesis.
 
 • A screen reader that allows users to get out of the suite and navigate the
 standard interface of their phone.
 
 “Mobile Accessibility provides both access to the mainstream apps of the
 phone and access to special apps for blind people. Why? Because our
 philosophy
 has always been to allow our users to use the phone the same way as everyone
 else. However, we also believe that having some special apps for the most
 common tasks can be extremely useful if it means gaining in productivity,”
 added Eduard Sánchez.
 
 The major features of Mobile Accessibility are the following:
 
 • Touch navigation: You can use Mobile Accessibility not only with the
 trackball or the physical keyboard of your phone, but also with its
 touchscreen!
 Simply move your finger around the screen and the voice synthesis will read
 the text located under your finger. Or if you prefer, you can also swipe
 up/down/right/left
 and tap on the screen to navigate through the interface. And if you wish you
 can enable sound and vibration feedback.
 • Easy to input text: In or outside the Mobile Accessibility suite you can
 use the touch QWERTY keyboard as well as the speech recognition to write
 text
 quickly and easily. Imagine writing an SMS or an Email using your voice
 only.
 • Voice synthesis: Code Factory has been making mobile phones accessible to
 the blind and visually impaired for many years now, and they know that the
 voice
 matters... and a lot! For Mobile Accessibility, Code Factory has partnered
 with Nuance® to leverage its trusted Vocalizer text-to-speech technology,
 providing
 consumers with natural sounding voice readback.
 
 “With around 314 million visually impaired persons around the world, we
 believe that it’s our joint obligation to facilitate access to information
 and mobile
 communication to everyone” says Arnd Weil, VP  General Manager Automotive /
 Consumer Electronics, Nuance Communications. “By offering screen reader
 functionality
 for Android phones using Nuance Vocalizer, Code Factory gives blind and
 visually impaired persons access to one of the most important mobile
 platforms
 with the market’s most natural sounding and intelligible voices.”
 
 Inside the Mobile Accessibility suite of accessible applications you can do
 the following:
 
 • Phone: Make calls, answer calls, hear the caller ID and manage your call
 log.
 • Contacts: Manage your contacts, even those from social networks such as
 Facebook.
 • SMS: Compose and read short messages. Manage conversations.
 • Alarms: Set your alarms.
 • Web: Full web browser experience, similar to what you can find on your PC.
 Jump by the control of your choice (links, paragraphs, headings, forms,
 etc.)
 to navigate faster to the information of your interest. Bookmark your
 favourite webpages.
 • Calendar: Create, edit and delete a calendar entry. View all events per
 day, week or month.
 • Email: Full access to your Gmail account
 • 

Re: [AI] My first 3G experience

2011-03-04 Thread KARAN GUPTA
Dear Prashant,

You certainly won't get the speed of 21mbps, as the given hardware like
dongle, built-in tethering modem into the handset or the ethernet card still
need to come upto HSUPA+ standards. Furthermore, all the handsets to date
only comes with HSDPA standards of upto 7 mbps only, which even on paper can
not deliver that speed whilst the carrier provider is facilitating the
higher speeds. However, I've tried Tikona, Reliance and TATA 3G dongle at
Nokia Siemens Networks and I have got off a little generous speed of maximum
8 -10 mbps - depending on different types of locations, which is not bad
actually. I believe anyone using 3G dongles rather than using their handsets
to tether with their machines are surfing with more or less with the same
speed. Also, there are still various other technical issues involved like
APN settings etc. to deal with both at the user and operator side to get
faster 3G connection. Moreover, the 3G had been delayed in India but I hope
we can manage to live with the practically achievable speed of 3-10mbps
atleast for some more months, if not years. As Wi-Max and LTE is just around
the corner to be launched in India. The trials and site-setups has already
put into place by big vendors like Ericsson, Huawei and NSN etc. But there
is a huge cost involved for carrier providers for upgrading their existing
sites, as they are more worried about their revenue-generation from Internet
based applications and how many people would use it anyway. As soon as they
will sort this issue out, we all will be in a absolute win-win situation of
better connectivity options at competitive tariffs.

With best Regards,
- Karan Gupta

 Dear all,
 Vodafone 3G has been launched in Delhi and I have it activated on my N79.
 I tried to test the download speed specially because in the advertisements
 it is claimed that it can give speeds upto 21 MBps. On my laptop I
 downloaded a 32 MB file and did a speed check.
 I was able to download  32.5MB in 4 min 29 seconds. The maximum speed
 reached was 124 kbps.
 I also checked the speed online using the website http://www.speedtest.net
 The results were:
 Download speed 1.39 MBps
 Upload speed 0.12 MBps
 Average time to download a movie(800 MB) 77 mins
 The speed was no way near 21 MBps but it is certainly much higher than what
 has been achieved on mobile phone so far.

 I also downloaded and tested the Vodafone TV application. You are required
 to download and install an app and then subscribe to the channels you want.
 Surprisingly this application is almost totally accessible. Apart from a
 scrolling text which echoes repeatedly, Talks reads all the options.
 I was able to subscribe and view TV channels. There was no stutter in the
 video streaming and it was live too (I compared with the same channel on
 TV).

 Prashant

Re: [AI] only for the job fair

2010-12-14 Thread KARAN GUPTA
I share exactly the same experience as Mr Vamshi had, spending too much time 
and money when I went all the way to pune last month in a job fair held by 
'Ekaansh' backed by some big business house...I did not find anything 
accordingly rather I had been provided with plenty of wrong information just to 
increase the numbers. On the other hand, my personal experience with the 
Sarthak-NASSCOM job fair was extremely good. It also depends on how well an 
individual pulls up the right information about any particular event. 
Eventually, all the NGOs are more or less try to do some really good job. It 
will keep on improving years after years and we all are learning through it in 
a positive manner. As I believe organizers work even harder to muster all 
things in place.

Hi,

Agree with you all.  But when a candidate hasn't got the required
qualifications for the jobs the company has announced, the candidate
should not be called at all, instead of calling him just to increase
the strength of the attendance.

I am not talking about the current case, as I know nothing about it.
But I attended a job fair for disabled at Delhi, going all the way
from Tirupati, in 2008 where my experience was not that great.  I
clearly wrote in my resume that I am working as a lecturer and my
academics are in finance and marketing.

I was given a list of companies whose interviews I can attend.

1.  One company said they are not looking for people from teaching background.

2.  Another company said they don't have anyone from finance
department to take my interview.

3.  Third company said I was over qualified for the job they have announced.

4.  Fourth company said they don't have any openings in finance field.

Besides, there were a few big MNCs who conducted exams for some posts.
 When I told them that I wanted a scribe, they told me that I need not
write the exam.  I thought they exempted me from writing the exam, but
later came to know that they exempted me from the recruitment.

I totally accept with all the companies.  But my only concern was
that, had I been told all this before hand, I wouldn't have gone all
the way from Tirupati to Delhi.

And I totally accept that, any criticism, whether bear or
constructive, should be directed to the concerned parties and not on
public platforms.

 Dear Friends,

 I do know that employment is a major concern for all of us visually impaired
 people. Most corporate houses are not very open to hiring blind and visually
 impaired people. NGOs and social activists are perhaps the only people who
 are championing the cause of employment for us. It is a huge challenge and I
 would appreciate the efforts of the NGOs who have taken on the challenge. We
 must realise that NGOs are spending a lot of their time and resources
 sensitising, lobbying and negotiating on our behalf for jobs in the private
 sector. The battle is against a formidable mindset, the task is by no means
 easy. Further, we must realise that NGOs contrary to popular perceptions,
 work with very limited budgets. My experience tells me that we need to be
 patient and see what we could do to alter the situation on our part. The
 questions to ask ourselves are whether we are well prepared to take on
 interviews, whether our language skills are good enough for the Corporate
 World, whether our qualifications are right and whether we are good enough
 to take on the competition? Remember that the Corporates have several
 choices.

 Hence, I do not think it is a great idea to resort to NGO bashing if we are
 not finding employment. On the other hand I would focus on self development
 and try and cooperate with the NGOs who are fighting for my cause. Yes, we
 all have the right to be disappointed but let us not criticise and crib
 about efforts put in by people who are part of our own team. Hope all of you
 would take this mail in the right spirit.

 Regards,

 George

it out, it should not be taken otherwise. In my opinion, it must be
complimented and accepted. Expression is a universal right given to

 It all depends Mr. Akhilesh, how you look at the things. It shows that,
 your happiness and sadness depend or are controlled by other's criticism

 or admiration. That means you let people dictate your emotions, whereas,

 you should be the master of your own feelings. Now, you have said that,
 I have forgotten my etiquettes and manners; maybe you are right , or,
 that is the way you look at the things. I hold no grudge against you
 because, that is your way of expressing the things. This again is a free

 advice that, always consider those people as your friend who point out
 your mistakes, because they want to see you improve and progress. Who is

 perfect in the world you tell me. You said that, I should look at myself

 1st. Yes, I am doing that and I am open for any reaction
 whatsoever,because, ultimately, we are here to learn from each other.
 Now for instance, you have taught me to adhere to etiquettes and
 manners, I will do it. You think, I sound bossy. If so, I am prepared
 for any sort of punishment only I should know as to what is it. Do you
 want to propose my elimination from the list? you can because, you are
 the master of your own decision. You say that, I should write to you in
 person, but, I commit mistake in public so I also stand to be corrected
 in public. Of course I know that it calls for lot of patience and
 courage to accept it.I agree that, mistakes are made when you write in
 hurry, but,  the text can be edited, rectified and thus all this can be
 avoided. Whether you agree or not but, it is for anyone that, it does
 give the glimpse  of your personality from the way you write or speak
 and address to others.

 MR. namdeo,
 I would be very happy person if you keep your free advises with you,
 sir.
 I think I don't require them. As far as the matter of too and also is
 concern, I'm very much aware about these things. But when you write
 your mail in a hurry, many people make such kind of mistakes. But I'm
 seeing since last few mails that you're sounding a bit bossy. Let the
 moderator do his work.
 When you point a finger at somebody, just see yourself as well. Do you
 know that these sorts of mistakes are told in personal? Means, you
 should have written me personally if you have found anything wrong in
 my mail. The way you are reacting on my mail, and the forum on which
 you are delivering such advises, it shows that you have forgot the
 lessons of etiquettes and manners.
 thanks,
 Akhilesh.

Most of the apps these days are now developed for every OS platforms except
palm OS. Try to find its sis or sisx version on 'getjar.com', 'zedge.net', '

Dear Bhavesh Bhaiya,
If you have gprs activated, then you can configure gmail in your cell.
For that, go to your messaging option or if you have newer handset then look 
for setup wizard in tools.
The configurations are as follows:
Mailbox type: Imap.
Incoming Mail Server: imap.gmail.com
Outgoing mail server: smtp.gmail.com
Once you have done with the normal email wizard, then go to connection 
settings of your gmail.
There, make sure:
Under incoming settings you have to select:
security (ports) 'Ssl/TLS'.
Under outgoing settings you have to select:
Security (ports): start tls.
Where it says port default, change it to user defined and put 587 in the 
text box.
Configure all rest of the settings such as user name and password etc.

doesn't work during a Skype call; secondly, it's a bit difficult to end a call. 
 The sppeed and clarity are fine with 3G.  So worth trying.

I'm using Nokia E63 for emailing.  Very recently, I installed Skype on it.  We 
can copy, delete or paste selected text.  If your friend prefers or is familiar 
with qwerty keyboard, you may consider the model.  We can use different 
versions of TALKS, whereas, C5 works well with 5.01.1 only.  Calculator, 
dictionary, Voice Aide are some of the features I like and make use of.  C5 has 
all the features of Nokia E63 and even more.  In terms of price, portability 
and memory, C5 is good.  One of my friends says C5 has infrared but E63 does 
not.  E63 supports 8GB only.

Hi Vinod,

What are you trying to do? You can use the Excel macro recorder and then
customize the code or, you can write a macro from scratch. 

Excel uses Visual Basic for Applications which is a variant of visual basic
so the language is easy to learn.

Hi Zujar,
Let me tell you that the data card which Reliance or any other such service 
used to provide about a year back was very much accessible. Even I'm also 
having the Reliance data card and its very much similar to what you spoke in 
your last mail. However, the data cards that all such companies are 
supplying today are completely inaccessible with even JAWS cursor simply 
because all the buttons are given in graphics and no text labelled on that. 
so the only temporary remedy to those cards is to first get it connected 
with the help of a sighted person and then to connect it through the

Hi Ketan,

The 'Set as default' function of the Reliance Net Connect application is
what you're looking for. It's under the Settings tab of the application
window.

You get following tabs in the Reliance NetConnect window:

- Connection
- Activate
- Settings
- Zapac
- Help

These tabs cannot to switched using CTRL+TAB. The JAWS cursor can help
although. Switch to JAWS cursor and access the tab list using UP/DOWN arrow
keys. Once there, press CTRL+LEFT or CTRL+RIGHT to take the JAWS cursor to
'Settings'. Perform 'Left Mouse Click' now and the Settings tab opens. You
can use TAB key now to navigate to the 'Set as default' button. Activate it
and you're done.

 Another thing you could try is to remove all instamces of the device from

 Hi,

 Fear not, there is indeed a way around the in accessible interface of
 reliance broadband. Carry out the following steps.
 1. Ascertained the phone number you need to dial as well as your user
 name
 and password. I am not sure how to do this independently. My employer has
 given me a data card, so the system administrator in my company gave me
 the
 requisite credentials. Usually, the phone number assigned to the data
 card
 will be the user name and the password.

 2. Insert the data card into the computer and let the computer add the

I forgot the name, but I think there is a gadget which scans converts
Braille to print. If that is true, for large scale exams, Govt should
buy such a device and send all braille papers to that centralized
location of the state for eveluation. It would be reasonable to ask
Govt to procure the same at every eveluation centre.

 Well, I beg to differ, just because a paper is written in Braille, it is
 expected the paper would be evaluated by VI or it is expected the evaluator
 is expected to learn Braille. Braille is certainly an option and the
 importance of Braille should not be undermined.

 How to deal with Braille paper is an operational issue to be dealt with the
 authority. Certainly the practical way out is to get it transcribed by a
 person knowing Braille. Sighted or blind.

 I would go further to state we should write in Braille to authorities to
 ensure the importance of Braille as a medium.

 I am unsure if a Braille document can be considered as a legal document
 although I reckon there should be no bar in it.It should be interesting to
 know the legal status of Braille.

 Audio Recording is good, However, it would make the candidate and the scribe
 very conscious. Let us  not make a blind person treated like a criminal.If
 the scribe does not read well it will still not make the things better as no
 extra marks would be given for the wrong answer. If for any reason the
 authorities could not arrange for recording or if the recording did not come
 through will, some hypper intelligent babu would penalise a blind person for
 it. You never know.

 Well I too would not deny the fact that there is no better option than
 writing the exams on our own using the Assistive Technology or Computer. But
 if we want to use it just because some of the candidates are taking the help
 from their Writers, then use of Computer also seems to be futile and
 helpless to stop the cheating in the examination since Computer will be very
 useful to correct the spelling mistakes specially for those who are not that
 good in English spellings while writing a subjective Paper.
 I think currently the main theme of our on going discussion is Criteria and
 eligibility of Scribe, not about the Candidate whether he or she is
 honestly answering the papers or not. so better if we do not deviate from
 the original topic and do not discuss about cheating and copying in the
 exam. Otherwise this will be a endless debate and our motive of preparing
 the correct guidelines on Scribe eligibility will not be fulfilled, however,
 the problem of cheating will be remained there unless the Invigilator is
 very active. I would again say that how can you stop the sighted applicants
 who copy in the exam? So what my purpose is to say that doing swindle during
 the examinations is not our problem but the problem lies on the part of
 Invigilator and related authority who conduct the examination.
 As far as taking the Exams through Braille is concerned, the idea is good
 but then I would again say the time needs to be extended for writing the
 exams since practically writing Braille takes more energy as compare to use
 the pen and Braille cannot be faster than the print in writing in case of
 use of simple Braille-Slate. Yes, brailor can indeed be a very useful tool
 to overcome with the problem of speed but, now question is raised about how
 to arrange the Brailor, who would afford for those who cannot buy it and
 there are many such problems involved in the use of Brail script during the
 examination. So better if we continue with the use of Scribe.

That's a bit tricky actually...most of the business cards are different in 
sizes...the whole idea is to keep the card within the margins shown on the

on types of font printed on a card...henceforth, it is not always accurate.

Dear Pranav,

My experience is you should keep your business card in a correct
direction.  This multiscanner application has no feature of automatic
orientation.  So vertical or opposite direction text will not be
recognized.  The distance from the card can be say 6 inches. Make sure
your camera position is in the centre of the card and then lift it up.
 Then just click to capture.

I think with the trial of 2-3 cards you will get exact idea about the
distance and positioning your mobile camera to get good image.

Hello all,
May I have  your kind attention please.

While discussing some usual stuff with a friend yesterday, I got to
know that Indian government is soon to distribute tablet PC just for
RS 1500.

While its a great news for all, I’m afraid if it’ll be accessible or not.

Though they have stated that its going to be a touch screen system
along with a built in keyboard attached, but like most of the other
things by government, I don’t want it to be inaccessible.

Since the device does not have a harddisk and all the things will be
preinstalled on it, I did not read a single word if any talking
software is installed on it.

This is worrisome, and I wanted to work on this.

With what they have announced, the device looks  promising.

is there any organization/group/individual who wish to take this forward?

Perhaps, we should clearly talk to ministry of HRD and inquire if its
going to be accessible or not.

A PC in rs. 1500 will be great boon for whole of our community, and it
may bring in a revelution in our state and development.

I request all the NGOs working for blind people, activists groups,and
individuals to please come forward and bring ourselves in the
attention for the government before it gets very late.

It’s a perfect time to inquire about it, and if it isn’t accessible,
then we can skirmish with government to make it like that.

Following are some of the news which have been published in the
newspapers on 23 july.

 Strong link between child disability and poverty



 Randeep Ramesh







 Wealthy families in Britain are a third less likely to have a disabled
 child, a statistic that reveals an alarming social gradient because
 poorer families unlucky enough to have such children are pushed
 further into poverty by the pressures of caring for them, according to
 research.

 Despite 15 years of legislation attempting to ease the burden on
 affected families, the highest prevalence of childhood disability is
 found in poorest families, academics at Warwick University found.

 Extra costs

 In the paper, published in the journal BMC Pediatrics, researchers
 found that households with a disabled child were £50-a-week worse off
 than those without. This is despite the fact that the extra costs of
 bringing up a disabled child means families need an extra 18 per cent
 in income. Nationally, this amounts to a heavy burden on the 950,000
 families identified in the paper as having disabled children.

 “We think the official [figures] underestimates the actual numbers by
 250,000 ... and the huge inequalities that the paper clearly shows
 that is of some concern,” said Clare Blackburn of Warwick University's
 school of health and social studies. Disability appears to be not
 simply an accident of birth, she said, but a confluence of
 “intergenerational poverty” and modern medical progress.

 Ms Blackburn said the exact extent to which “factors such as low
 income precede or follow disability is difficult to tell, but what we
 know is that poor diet and stressful living conditions do increase the
 chances of premature birth and low birth weight, which are indicators
 of future disability. Thanks to science, these babies live longer and
 medicine now keeps alive disabled children who may have died 10, 20
 years ago.”

 The Warwick researchers point out that debt was more common in those
 families with disabled children: the parents were unable to keep up
 with any local property taxes, water and telephone bills, and were not
 likely to be able to afford basic items such as a family holiday once
 a year, a bicycle, or even two pairs of shoes. “It is a serious social
 gradient disabled families face,” said Ms Blackburn. “A disabled baby
 needs more nappies. Families' ability to work grows difficult, and
 finding childcare is a real burden. Households with disabled children
 will depend more on social security benefits and are faced with the
 additional financial costs associated with caring for a disabled
 child.”

 Struggling to survive

 Doctors said that Andrew Lomax's seven-year-old daughter Emily would
 not make it “out of hospital” aged two weeks. Born healthy, she
 stopped breathing as a tiny baby and those 20 minutes without oxygen
 left her with a severe form of cerebral palsy. She was registered
 blind, unable to swallow, walk and breathe without an aspirator, so
 her two parents gave up their jobs to look after her and their two
 other children.

 “Our income is £15,000 a year — about a third of what it was before,”
 said Andrew. “It's all [social] benefits, and I am a proud man who
 does not like to say it but family holidays come from the kindness of
 charities.” Andrew says that he cannot afford to buy his elder son the
 Nintendo he craves. He is left scouring local papers for presents. His
 income is eaten up by fuel and petrol bills. “We have to keep the
 house very warm for Emily, who is susceptible to pneumonia and the
 cost of running the specially designed car is prohibitive. It only
 does six kilometres per litre. Most months we are hit by bank charges
 and missed payments. I try to juggle, but it is robbing Peter to pay
 Paul.” — © Guardian Newspapers Limited, 2010

I may add few clarifications to this:
Since the computers are getting delivered in New Delhi and then

cost of

11500.

This cost will be indicated at the time of delivery and I can asure  
that it

will not be high.

This scheme is a learning process for us too as there are lots of

Hello sir,

I'm interested in purchasing this wonderful netbook but have a few
doubts which I would like to clear before submitting the form.
1. In the specifications, I couldn't find bluetooth, 3G  GPS on the
official Samsung page, i.e.
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/office/mobile-computing/netbooks/ 
NP

-N150-JA01US/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detailtab=spec
So, I'd like to know is this some sort of custom made netbook
different from the official version?
2. After downloading  filling the form, am I supposed to take it's
print out and speed post it to my chosen DFI organisation or can I
email this application as well along with my disability certificate ?
The reason why I ask this is that email is much more efficient than
post, and I don't want my application reaching office after the  
scheme

has elapsed.

Hi Jean,
My answers are inline and are prefixed by my initials.

internet?
PL] Yes. You need to access the google maps route generator and enter
your source and destination and generate the check points file.

want to go somewhere else you haven't been before.  Is there a way to

PL] Loadstone does not incorporate google or nokia maps. It just uses
these maps to generate output it can use to navigate.

snip  If a person is standing in a place and wants to know what's
around is it possible to get that information?
PL] In loadstone yes but it depends on the points you have loaded for
that location.

presumably nokia/google maps are more frequently updated?
PL] Hard to say. Perhaps yes but things like rerouting are not
available using this approach.

 Certainly. But they have to keep on working on certain things. For
 example, the in-build speaker is not the best and you have to actually
 listen on the headset to get the best quality of voiceover. But the
 voiceover is really amaizing and it almost sounds like a human being.
 Of course we also have voiceover speech engines for talks, but the
 voice actually sounds better on the I-phone. Interestingly, I-phone
 has been made accesible not only for us, but also for other disabled.
 For example, you can change songs simply by shaking the phone and
 someone who is not in a position to use both hands to select songs,
 this is indeed a great feature. Nokia and other models have to learn a
 great deal from Apple.

Re: [AI] Accessibility of I Phone (latest version)

2010-03-13 Thread KARAN GUPTA
Hi

As this question has already been discussed actually - to answer it in a
best possible way would be...one need to have IPhone OS 3.0 or higher
installed on any of the three models of IPhone to make it compatible with
its accessibility functionalities like voice-over, magnification,
invert-colors, shake-dial, pinch-out, one-word ebook display and TTS etc. It
comes with apple's proprietary screen reader though somewhat like iMac or
macbook pro. I had already ran a live pilot survey on my totally VI friends
at AFB (US), RNIB (UK) and some other major cities of the first world
countries. Almost all of them had a very similar and straight-forward answer
that the phone is undoubtedly a smartphone leader but they just can
not afford to loose their already maintained speed and accuracy with any of
the other phones out there that provide them haptic as well as tactile
feedback. As the IPhone has 3.5 mm diagonal touchscreen TFT display. On the
other hand, it is very much accessible indeed. You may give me a shout
anytime, in case you pop around to Delhi and have an essence of how does an
IPhone 3GS feels and works with its all accessibility features for a
real-world use on its very latest 3.1.3 OS. All these accessibility features
are simply outstanding except its screen reading proprietary software, which
sounds a bit gimmicky to me unless we see some revolutionary developments
ahead in navigating the apps which takes advantage of its one of the kind
capacitive touchscreen with the combination of its next-gen screen reading
software (hopefully out in 3rd Q 2010) unlike other touchscreen phones using
resistive technology (stylus-thingy), which eventually doubles the problem
for VI like the one I found in Samsung windows phone. The final verdict; its
easy, its accessible but very time-consuming, sluggish and may not accurate.

Cheers
- KG

Re: [AI] Now, mobile phones to offer X-ray vision

2010-03-10 Thread KARAN GUPTA

Hi

I am sure, there should be plenty techies out there who use this  
augmented reality view. As I'm already using an application called  
around me, which works any where on the planet - even with EDGE  
enabled networks but unfortunately, there are still a loads of details  
missing in it. For example, if I want to pinpoint nearest ATM or  
Hotel, I switch-over to augmented view within that app through camera  
of my handset and point it towards any building, it might not show me  
the ATM exist in that building even when it is actually there.  
Although this technology could be next big thing as the database gets  
updated frequently. There are some other applications like 'google  
street view', which works extremely good in US  UK but not available  
in India yet for security reasons. Having said that though, one can  
access 'street view' through google earth on any PC. whilst the best  
augmented reality view app, I've used so far is back in Chicago, where  
I used to find out underground train lines beneath the roads and  
pavements. Lastly, around me application is absolutely free in India  
and works really good everywhere entirely based on augmented view  
technology. I wish these kinds of apps will be available on most of  
the handheld models sooner or later and hope 'google goggles' will  
take it to the next level. Many Thanks.

Now, mobile phones to offer X-ray vision

Sydney: Researchers at the University of South Australia have  
developed mobile phone software that can offer X-ray vision to see  
what's on the other side of the building in front of you.


Christian Sandor said that the application works by using the  
phone's camera, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.


He said that users can point the camera at a building and an image  
of it would appear on the screen. Then, the image would change to  
show what was behind the building, as if it was no longer there,  
Sandor said.


Sandor said the research group collaborated with Nokia to build the  
application, which it hoped could be introduced in the next two years.


The technology, known as augmented reality, appears to be X-ray  
vision, but in reality it uses pictures and images that already  
exist in databases such as Google Earth and Google Streetview.


Sandor said that the application needs two pieces of information: a  
3D model of the area or city the phone user is in and the user's  
exact position.


He said that a 3D model of a city could be built using information  
collected from aerial surveys.


Survey planes capture the shape and size of the buildings in a city.  
That data is merged with images from databases to complete the 3D  
model.


GPS is used to work out the user's exact position. Once the software  
knows this information, it uses information and images from the 3D  
model to display a picture of what is behind the building.


Sandor said that the technology could not be used to see into  
people's houses because only the exterior views of buildings and  
streets were held in the databases.

Without trying to curb your enthusiasm, I would first like to warn you
against attending campus interviews without understanding the

HR policy. If they have equal opportunity policy, you may explain to
them that you would like to be considered in the disabled persons
category and take tests. The trouble is, most organisations coming for
campus interviews are not prepared to meet a VI ccandidate and  
therefore

are most likely to reject your application. Since some of them have
policy of not considering ccandidates they had rejected in the past, I
would ask you not to approach them the way other candidates do. Take
advice from folks like Enable India before you try applying somewhere.

Talks should be installed on the memory card for the simple reason
that when you remove your memory card, all the programs installed in
your memory card will be closed. It means that talks will also be one
of those. It means that you can never run talks without inserting  
your

Disability groups cheered up when a hike in investment in disabled- 
friendly schemes and the setting up of the country's first sign  
language training institute was announced by Finance Minister Pranab  
Mukherjee in the general budget on Friday.
The finance minister's announcement was very heart warming! It is a  
positive step and in the right direction. We welcome the increase in  
budget allocations, Javed Abidi, a disability rights activist told  
IANS.


The allocation in budget 2010-11 for disabled-friendly schemes is Rs. 
398 crore, a step up from previous year's spend of Rs.243.29 crore.


Investment in schemes for implementation of the Disability Act have  
been increased manifold to Rs.95 crore from the previous Rs.7.5  
crore. The allocation for schemes for employment to disabled persons  
has been increased by over 50 percent to Rs.7 crore.


Abidi, who is also founder of the National Centre for Promotion of  
Employment for Disabled People (NCPEDP), an umbrella organisation  
for over 100 non-governmental organisations (NGOs) working on  
disability issues across India, said he wished that the budget was  
more, to expedite the country's 11th five-year plan assuring freely  
accessible infrastructure and development for disabled people under  
the Disability Act.


While presenting the budget, the finance minister mentioned the  
establishing of the country's first sign language institute, which  
has been one of the three major demands of the disability rights  
activists.


The allocation will also assist in establishing an Indian Sign  
Language Research and Training Centre for the benefit of the hearing  
impaired. District Disability Rehabilitation Centres are being set  
up in 50 additional districts along with two composite regional  
centres for persons with disabilities, Mukherjee said.


Taxes liabilities on those caring for disabled dependents have also  
been relaxed.


Direct tax deduction with respect to maintenance, including medical  
treatment, of a dependent who is a person with severe disability has  
been raised from the present limit of Rs.75,000 to Rs.100,000.

 Nokia Siemens Networks and LG Electronics have achieved an LTE
 downlink data transfer rate of 100 Mbps, the maximum speed for a Class
 3 LTE terminal. In LTE, user equipment is categorized into classes
 based on its potential uplink and downlink data rates. Class 3
 terminals are expected to be the first widely used commercial LTE
 terminals when they are launched later in 2010. This data call,
 operating a Class 3 terminal at its 100Mbps limit, therefore
 demonstrates significant progress towards commercial LTE.

 Wi-max is working already on 150 migs in Tokyo, London, Stanford and
 Hongkong, Which is already a loads of bandwidth. Although, there are
 plenty of claims of switching over to 4G in some first world countries
 - theoritacally, if not practically. Its all about marketing,
 generating revenues and Operators will take advantage of this market
 opportunity by breaking down their walls and building open ecosystems.
 According to ABI Research practice director Philip Solis, “Operators
 of 4G networks will refuse to be marginalized as ‘dumb data pipe’
 service providers. Instead, they will offer suites of ‘smart services’
 – some internally developed, others via partnerships with third party
 suppliers – that will be provided over ‘smart networks’ enabled with
 all-IP technologies, IMS infrastructure and cloud-based storage. As I
 said earlier 150 migs for corporate world in first world countries is
 really a lot, which is entirely based on 3G.

 Assuming India skips 3G for 4G. I wonder, how much time and cost,
 operators need to shell out to change the whole infrastructure from
 the scratch. Whilst they're working hard even to make MNP compatible
 with their current infrastructure.

 Subject: [AI] Leapfrog to 4G?


 Should the Indian telecom sector skip 3G, being years behind anyway, and
 go
 directly for 4G technologies? It's a tempting call but there are hurdles
 too..







 Bijoy Ghosh

 To take it one at a time or not.

 Thomas K Thomas

 Back in the mid-1990s, when mobile services were launched in India -
 more
 than 10 years after the first generation (1G) cellular network was
 rolled
 out by NTT in Japan - cellular operators here had leapfrogged
 technology.
 Indian mobile service providers had straightaway launched a network that
 was
 based on second generation (2G) technology i.e. GSM standard; altogether
 skipping first generation technologies such as Total Access
 Communication
 Systems, Advanced Mobile Phone System and C-Nets deployed then by
 various
 operators in Japan, the US and Europe.

 Fifteen years hence, in 2010, Indian cellular operators are facing the
 same
 question yet again. Should they leapfrog from the existing 2G network to
 fourth generation (4G) technology and give third generation (3G) a skip?

 There are various 4G technologies that are being developed and adopted
 globally. But the most widely talked about is called the Long-Term
 Evolution
 (LTE) as some operators in Europe and the US have already started
 commercial
 deployment on this platform.

 LTE allows more data to be transferred over the same bandwidth used by
 3G
 technology and at higher speeds. Compared with the 3 Mbps speed offered
 by
 third-generation services, LTE can offer speeds of up to 10 Mbps. As a
 result, service providers should be able to get more data transfer out
 of
 their network and possibly lower the cost to run their networks. LTE
 allows
 operators to introduce exciting services such as HD (high-definition)
 video
 blogging, HD video on demand, media mobility, online gaming. It brings a
 significantly improved business proposition with 2.5 times higher
 capacity,
 lower cost per bit and media mobility.

 Add to this the fact that India is already nine years behind other
 countries
 when it comes to introducing 3G technology. While operators such as
 Vodafone, NTT DoCoMo and ATT have been offering 3G services in Europe,
 Japan and the US, in India the operators are still on plain old GSM
 network.
 The delay has been primarily due to the fact that the Indian Government
 has
 already taken four years to discuss and debate various aspects of
 auctioning
 3G spectrum

Re: [AI] RSS Feeds was: web brouser in ubuntu

2010-02-26 Thread KARAN GUPTA

Hi ya

What is RSS?
RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing  
web content. Many news-related sites, weblogs and other online  
publishers syndicate their content as an RSS Feed to whoever wants it.

Why RSS? Benefits and Reasons for using RSS

RSS solves a problem for people who regularly use the web. It allows  
you to easily stay informed by retrieving the latest content from the  
sites you are interested in. You save time by not needing to visit  
each site individually. You ensure your privacy, by not needing to  
join each site's email newsletter. The number of sites offering RSS  
feeds is growing rapidly and includes big names like Yahoo News.


What do I need to do to read an RSS Feed?
Feed Reader or News Aggregator software allow you to grab the RSS  
feeds from various sites and display them for you to read and use.


A variety of RSS Readers are available for different platforms. Some  
popular feed readers include Amphetadesk (Windows, Linux, Mac),  
FeedReader(Windows), and NewsGator (Windows - integrates with  
Outlook). There are also a number of web-based feed readers available.  
My Yahoo, Bloglines, and Google Reader are popular web-based feed  
readers.


Once you have your Feed Reader, it is a matter of finding sites that  
syndicate content and adding their RSS feed to the list of feeds your  
Feed Reader checks. Many sites display a small icon with the acronyms  
RSS, XML, or RDF to let you know a feed is available.

Hi,

To illustrate using RSS in Firefox, I will take the example of The  
Hindu.


1. Once on the website www.thehindu.com, look for the link “RSS Fe 
eds”. For convenience, you can use the links list dialog box. This 
 is the RSS Feeds page for The Hindu:

http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/rss/index.htm.
2. There are a bunch of feeds on this page corresponding to  
different sections of the newspaper. If you wish to subscribe to  
all, you would have to manually subscribe to each one of them. So,  
to start, press enter on the first one, which is the News Update.
3. To add the feed of News Updates as a Live Bookmark, select Live  
Bookmarks from Subscribe to this feed combo box. Then, press the  
Subscribe Now button.
4. Make your selections in the Live Bookmarks dialog box, which is  
similar to the regular Bookmarks dialog.
5. Now to view the feed items, go to the location you selected in  
the previous dialog box, the default one is under the Bookmarks  
Toolbar. It would be the last item in the sub menu opened by  
pressing the Right arrow, and if you haven’t changed the named it  
will be labeled as “The Hindu – News Updates”.
6. You can Right arrow again to open this sub menu and press enter  
on each feed headline to reach the page with the news content.
7. A better way is to use the Open All in Tabs option that is  
always located at the bottom of every Bookmarks sub menu. All your  
feed items will be opened as tabs in the same window. You can read  
each page and then press CTRL+W to close the tab and automatically  
go to the next one.


Regards

To cut it short - cnet in any country works closely with Reuters,  
standard  poors and top university professors etc. I know it because  
they're my colleauges and we never post anything right from one or two  
sources. Our process is intense to read hundreds of journals first,  
for example, jstore.com - before coming to unanimous conclusion and  
our write-ups. I never meant, who's right, who's wrong or blame-game.  
It's just all about spreading right information for the right people  
and for the right reason. I still strongly believe, I wish, should I  
get influence from one or two sources so easily, I'd have stopped  
going to libraries, consulting top facilitators etc. Moreover, please  
match Harvard or MLA referencing system with Wiki because I can send  
you the list of CNET (UK/US) bibliography database, if you want to.  
Everyone has got different writing style. My colleagues from cnet are  
the people who met the innovators themselves at MWC 2010 at Barcelona  
and CES 2010 Los Angles. It is as simple as that, it's wasn't about  
you mate, it was all about the reliable source you refer to, so we all  
can put our faith in that piece of information. I don't know, how  
serious you are about the quality and an organized content. Lastly, I  
had a positive argument about one topic from wiki because I have all  
the recorded video podcasts of Steve Jobs and lary page only from  
cnet, where they clearly explained the developments of gps-thingy in  
the last two years.

Firstly, it's Karan not Karen. Please do refer the archive of iPhone  
3GS
where I mentioned about its accessibility options. In short, it  
comes with
built-in voice-over synthesizer exacltly like Mac and a built-in  
magnifier
and a add-on app for shake dialing. I won't recommend its voice over  
though

entirely based on its touch screen because there are always a loads of
confusion and trouble to access it accurately and speedly for my  
totally VI

friends unlike the other traditional phones, which gives you tactile
feedback. Having said that, its magnification technology is really  
state of
the art. Infact, once you use it - you get addicted of it somewhat  
like
zoomtext and even better than 'magic' on PC but all this features  
are really
very handy for low vision or partially-blind. About its performance:  
Among

the 3G S' new features, the unsung heroes have to be the improved
performance and battery life. Well, the improved performance is  
somewhat
sung, since the 'S' in the phone's name stands for 'speed'. Although  
it's

not as glamorous as cut-and-paste capability -- I never thought I'd be
writing that -- it improves the experience of using a phone that  
already

feels top of its class for responsiveness. The 3GS also supports voice
control, which suits me, since I like to yell to myself on the Delhi- 
Metro
to frighten off muggers. lol. It's activated by holding down the  
home button
or pressing the button on the included headphones. You can use it to  
control
the iPod functionality, as well for making calls. I was happy to see  
that it
supports UK/US English, so I didn't have to put on a Cupertino  
accent to
make myself understood. It had no trouble recognising who I wanted  
to phone
or what band I wanted to play, and it prompted me pleasantly when  
there were
several phone numbers on offer. Not a day goes by when I don't use  
in-built
GPS system, which is overall alright. I can track all that running  
with the
built-in GPS, and there's a compass to point me where I want to go  
in Google
Maps. It's also great for finding the correct exit from the London  
Tube or
Delhi Metro, but it isn't used in Google Street View in the very  
cool way
I've seen on the HTC Magic. I'm looking forward to what developers  
will do
with the compass app in the future. The landscape keyboard makes its  
way

into the messaging apps and Web browser in OS 3.0, which is great for
sausage-fingered typists, and could help if this is your first  
touchscreen
keyboard. I've always been big fans of the iPhone's keyboard,  
whether in
portrait or landscape orientation, because of its great predictive  
text.
It's even better than a full netbook keyboard for typing

Re: [AI] Leapfrog to 4G?

2010-02-25 Thread KARAN GUPTA
Hiya

Nokia Siemens Networks and LG Electronics have achieved an LTE
downlink data transfer rate of 100 Mbps, the maximum speed for a Class
3 LTE terminal. In LTE, user equipment is categorized into classes
based on its potential uplink and downlink data rates. Class 3
terminals are expected to be the first widely used commercial LTE
terminals when they are launched later in 2010. This data call,
operating a Class 3 terminal at its 100Mbps limit, therefore
demonstrates significant progress towards commercial LTE.

Wi-max is working already on 150 migs in Tokyo, London, Stanford and
Hongkong, Which is already a loads of bandwidth. Although, there are
plenty of claims of switching over to 4G in some first world countries
- theoritacally, if not practically. Its all about marketing,
generating revenues and Operators will take advantage of this market
opportunity by breaking down their walls and building open ecosystems.
According to ABI Research practice director Philip Solis, “Operators
of 4G networks will refuse to be marginalized as ‘dumb data pipe’
service providers. Instead, they will offer suites of ‘smart services’
– some internally developed, others via partnerships with third party
suppliers – that will be provided over ‘smart networks’ enabled with
all-IP technologies, IMS infrastructure and cloud-based storage. As I
said earlier 150 migs for corporate world in first world countries is
really a lot, which is entirely based on 3G.

Assuming India skips 3G for 4G. I wonder, how much time and cost,
operators need to shell out to change the whole infrastructure from
the scratch. Whilst they're working hard even to make MNP compatible
with their current infrastructure.

 Should the Indian telecom sector skip 3G, being years behind anyway, and
 go
 directly for 4G technologies? It's a tempting call but there are hurdles
 too..







 Bijoy Ghosh

 To take it one at a time or not.

 Thomas K Thomas

 Back in the mid-1990s, when mobile services were launched in India -
 more
 than 10 years after the first generation (1G) cellular network was
 rolled
 out by NTT in Japan - cellular operators here had leapfrogged
 technology.
 Indian mobile service providers had straightaway launched a network that
 was
 based on second generation (2G) technology i.e. GSM standard; altogether
 skipping first generation technologies such as Total Access
 Communication
 Systems, Advanced Mobile Phone System and C-Nets deployed then by
 various
 operators in Japan, the US and Europe.

 Fifteen years hence, in 2010, Indian cellular operators are facing the
 same
 question yet again. Should they leapfrog from the existing 2G network to
 fourth generation (4G) technology and give third generation (3G) a skip?

 There are various 4G technologies that are being developed and adopted
 globally. But the most widely talked about is called the Long-Term
 Evolution
 (LTE) as some operators in Europe and the US have already started
 commercial
 deployment on this platform.

 LTE allows more data to be transferred over the same bandwidth used by
 3G
 technology and at higher speeds. Compared with the 3 Mbps speed offered
 by
 third-generation services, LTE can offer speeds of up to 10 Mbps. As a
 result, service providers should be able to get more data transfer out
 of
 their network and possibly lower the cost to run their networks. LTE
 allows
 operators to introduce exciting services such as HD (high-definition)
 video
 blogging, HD video on demand, media mobility, online gaming. It brings a
 significantly improved business proposition with 2.5 times higher
 capacity,
 lower cost per bit and media mobility.

 Add to this the fact that India is already nine years behind other
 countries
 when it comes to introducing 3G technology. While operators such as
 Vodafone, NTT DoCoMo and ATT have been offering 3G services in Europe,
 Japan and the US, in India the operators are still on plain old GSM
 network.
 The delay has been primarily due to the fact that the Indian Government
 has
 already taken four years to discuss and debate various aspects of
 auctioning
 3G spectrum and still there is no finality.

 3G bus missed?

 All this makes analysts believe that India may have missed the 3G bus
 and
 therefore should move to 4G in order to catch up with the rest of the
 telecom world. Indian operators could look at moving straight to
 fourth-generation technologies, considering the timing

 Hello

 That explains it. It seems Rajesh's mail reached the NIC folks who quickly
 rolled out an accessible page. Last night when I had a look at it. It did
 not look so bad. Karan must have seen that site when a better accessible
 page was active.

 It is somewhat satisfying to see AI mails are read with interest in many a
 quarters.

 Sad it left with bitterness in the mouth with some. I am sure there would be
 an accessible page up there soon, so, folks who are interested in enrolling
 here check it more often.

Re: [AI] IE7 or IE8: which is more accessible?

2010-02-24 Thread KARAN GUPTA

Hiya

As usual, Microsoft rolled out the latest version of Internet Explorer 
—IE8—to compete with arch rival Mozilla’s latest version of  
Firefox, the Firefox 3.0 that was gaining tremendous popularity. But,  
IE8 indeed had something special about it. Even the experts and users  
proclaimed that the basic browsing and productivity features in IE8  
were superior in comparison to the other leading browsers. The user  
interface featured many changes and these are summarized below.
When you compare IE7 to IE8, Internet Explorer 8 indeed has the upper  
hand over Internet Explorer 7. But, many users are still sceptical  
about using IE8 due to a whole lot of issues in the latest version.
Internet Explorer 8 does create problems on some machines, the major  
one being its nonresponsiveness at times. On some machines, the  
problem is so recurring that it has led to several discussions in  
thousands of forums that brand Internet Explorer 8 as a useless  
browser. However, the latest version of Internet Explorer is the most  
stable browser among all its predecessors. Before moving towards  
troubleshooting on how to repair Internet Explorer 8, I would like to  
inform you of the reason why it takes so much time to load.
If you have used Internet Explorer 8, you will agree that there are  
many features in the latest version of the Internet Explorer. When you  
open a fresh window of Internet Explorer, it makes you wait for a long  
time before presenting you with the menu for navigation. This is  
because it has to load all of the default accelerators and plug-ins in  
addition to the ones you must have added to the browser. Most of these  
add-ons and plug-ins have to be loaded into the electronic memory  
before you can browse. Other extras (additional plug-ins) are loaded  
on demand and are cached for further use.
Please let me know, if someone has any problem with IE8 and step by  
step guide to fix those problems on some machines

It works on both PC and as well as on phone. When you log onto gmail -

For those who are already using standard gmail, it would be needless

Dear Subramani Sir,
No, I didn't try on mobile.
As far as my knowledge goes it is currently intigrated with gmail's  
standard view.
So, if we directly go to gmail.com and login, there you will see  
something New! try google buz with gmail or, you can go to buz  
page which is in the list of the links of inbox, sent mail etc.
And if we open gmail on mobile it takes us to the mobile version of  
gmail which is m.gmail.com.
So for trying it out, go to gmail.com, login with your credentials,  
and in case if you are taken to html view, just find at the bottom  
side of the page there is a link called switch to standard view.  
Click, and you will be taken to standard view.
And if this is exactly what you have done, then I can only say that  
I have used gmail's new standard version which is available with IE7  
or above or Firefox 3 or above. And it is available in new version.

Will wait for your reply if you have anything to say.

It was exactly, I mentioned about in my earler post. After purchasing

Hi,

1. The only two GPS programs that work reliably in India are Wayfinder
Access and loadstone.

2. Accuracy is dependent on the GPS receiver you use. I use GPS  
heavily and
get accuracy up to 5 meters. I have an external GPS receiver. Most  
internal
GPS receivers are of poor quality so are less accurate and take a  
long time

to acquire a signal as compared to external GPS receivers.

3. I have contacted a lot of companies to ask if they have maps for  
India.
GPS per se will work anywhere in the world but having maps for that  
area is

the key issue here. They do not consider India a big enough market.

4. Wayfinder Access is an offshoot of a product called Wayfinder. This
product is meant for the main stream and does have good maps for  
India. This
is what I use everyday. Unfortunately, Vodaphone, who owns the  
product has

discontinued further development so we are in a bind. Please sign the
petition at http://www.talknav.com/protest

5. Loadstone is an open source product and the users have to make  
the maps
themselves. The problem with loadstone is that it does not provide  
routing
capabilities so you will not get turn-by-turn directions unless you  
define
them while planning your route. The bigger problem is that with  
loadstone,
you do not know immediately that you are off track. It will not plot  
an
alternative route for you. This is again a limitation of the kind of  
map
data that is freely available. You do not have information about  
streets

etc., in freely available map data.

I hope that clarifies the GPS issue.
Pranav

So, if we directly go to gmail.com and login, there you will see  
something New! try google buz with gmail or, you can go to buz   
page which is in the list of the links of inbox, sent mail etc.
And if we open gmail on mobile it takes us to the mobile version

So for trying it out, go to gmail.com, login with your  
credentials,  and in case if you are taken to html view, just find  
at the bottom  side of the page there is a link called switch to  
standard view.  Click, and you will be taken to standard view.
And if this is exactly what you have done, then I can only say  
that  I have used gmail's new standard version which is available  
with IE7  or above or Firefox 3 or above. And it is available in  
new version.

Will wait for your reply if you have anything to say.

Dear All,
Just now I tried google buz.
For me, many things were accessible.
I could follow people, those who were following me I could  
follow  them
back, I could read posts, I could expand them, I could connect  
with  the

sites like I connected with twitter, and two more I don't remember!
But only the problem which I found is that how to post something  
on buz?

There was something written that share posts, link, photos etc. But
clicking that text did not take me to any edit box where I could   
write

anything and could post to google buz.
For those who are already using standard gmail, it would be   
needless to
mention that in standard view, most of the things appears as  
text  only

but clicking them takes us to the right place. However the esential
things like links for inbox, chat's contact links are there.
I don't know how far google buz will be useful but just was  
exploring
and thought to share my experience as well as thought to clear my  
doubts

with you if anyone has explored it.

Re: [AI] suggestions needed for buying a new Laptop.....

2010-02-21 Thread KARAN GUPTA
Hiya

Dell inspiron 1464 is a new line of their notebooks. Whilst Compaq Presario
CQ41 216TU is quite for some time in the market. Dell 1464 is really a
affordable beast with good build quality, good travel in keyboard and more
responsive CPU than latter one. Although, there were several issues with the
speakers of Dell with their earlier inspiron series, which they have taken
it seriously and fixed them all. Compaq Presario CQ41 216TU is relatively a
good machine as well but the 4 gigs of RAM, which any one won't require more
than 2 gigs in any case unless you're a big time developer to handle and
edit big video softwares or music softwares for DJing. With all the apps
open like JAWS, Music, MS Office and Internet Explorer etc. your CPU
performance won't clock more than 1.5 gigs of usage. Lastly, When both the
machines kept side by side - Dell 1464 is faster by few seconds whilst
poering on and opening any application. Compaq Presario CQ41 216TU is not a
bad idea thogh if you don't mind installing OS and after sales services.

Hiya

My key issue is that, among all these compared GPS and A-GPS, related  
hardwares and softwares, how many of these work speedly and  
accurately. In all A-gps devices specifically meant for VH - almost  
all of them require a live Internet connection because only GPS won't  
be any use at all unless it is A-GPS equipped and in A-GPS either you  
need a valid good GPS signals or a live Internet connection built-in  
for your accurate  current position that can assist you properly to  
your destination. I've used some here in India but most of the times I  
never got any valid GPS signals at all, which force me to use Internet  
connection. Even after that, the cost of using that Internet  
connection consistently is high enough 1-2 paisa/kb and I don't get  
very much accuracy as it should be. On the other hand, the same  
devices and softwares work almost perfectly in US  UK and I used more  
features there in UK. Unless the connectivity options like a strong  
GPS signals or good 3G services do not match to all those GPS gizmos  
for VH, I can't think of owning the one. Please note that this preview  
strictly meant for my Indian VH friends only.

Re: [AI] regarding NITAT test.

Hiya

Please note that unfortunately there are no specific provisions for VH  
in particular. VH are eligible though to sit in the test - given  
they're done their senior higher secondary. Now the key issue here is  
all about writting that exam. As NIIT is solely a private body, it  
entirely depends on your interaction with one of their head offices in  
person because the major attraction for students taking NITAT is to  
avail discounts for any NIIT courses (usually 25%) apart from  
invitations from some IT seminars and interview calls from BPOs. Being  
a private body, visiting their main offices and explaining your  
situation could be the only solution. I did the same way back in 2004  
and they granted me the permission to take scribe along, although I  
didn't take the test. I guess the NIIT people won't have any idea  
about it as they don't deal and face with the VH situations'.

Hiya
I also use google maps, which is built-in my iPhone 3GS and it works  
very accurately with turn by turn directions. However, As I said in my  
earlier post that accuracy and functionality would stll remain a  
problem for some time in India, unless companies don't come out with  
detailed maps. For example, google's street view. No matter, how  
accurate or good your GPS systems are but I strongly do believe there  
are still so many details are missing as it should be there on maps.  
Also the updation process of maps in any GPS system is quite slow. I'd  
always expect more and more details in any GPS system with better  
accuracy and updation process so that a larger chunk of VH population  
can take full advantage of this and won't hesitate to be dependant on  
it to a certain extent. Exactly like JAWS, I wish GPS would work the  
same way for VH sooner or later but I really don't think so that any  
GPS is that reliable for VH because of the lack of details.

Hello Manish

It's very practically correct rather than misconception of GPS  
signals. As they vary place to place, about which we can exchange  
views offline as well for a concrete conclusion because I consider  
wikipedia academically incorrect reference to use, which is kind of

Re: [AI] Any N86 mobile users in our list?

2010-02-19 Thread KARAN GUPTA

Hiya

Please find below my opinion about N86, as I had used it 6 months ago.

N86 makes a good music phone, thanks to its dedicated music keys and  
its standard 3.5mm headphone jack, which means you can use your own  
headphones without an adaptor. It also has an FM radio and an Internet  
radio, with good podcast support. There's plenty of storage for all  
your tunes, with 8GB of internal memory and a microSD memory-card slot  
that supports up to 16GB more. It comes with stereo  dual speakers  
with 3D and widening effects with loud and clear voice, talks sounds  
very good and supports Bluetooth A2DP.


Syncing your music, videos and other data is fairly easy with the  
Nokia PC Suite software, which has been steadily improving over the  
years, advancing from crap to decent. It offers some great advantages,  
like the ability to sync over Bluetooth and type SMS messages on your  
computer before sending them to your phone, so you get to use a proper  
keyboard. But the music-manager part of PC Suite still doesn't compete  
with dedicated music software, so you might prefer to connect the N86  
in mass-storage mode and sync your music with your favourite music  
software. That's also handy if you have a Mac, because PC Suite only  
works on PCs. There are sone apps and web browser, where 'Talks'  
doesn't support - which might be fixed in upcoming update of Talks.


The Nokia N86 doesn't break much new ground and It's not as easy to  
use (most difficult to browse things) comparing to the N95, E90 or the  
N97, for example, but it really packs in the features, and, if you can  
find them, there are zillions of fantastic apps out there to make it  
even better. Best of all, for a phone, it takes excellent photos, with  
almost no shutter lag. As a top-of-the-line camera phone with all the  
power of a smart phone, I think the N86 is worth having.

Hi,

I'm madleen from uk, sorry never sent an introduction.
I've got an n86 and it's brilliant. It's fine with talks although I  
did
hear there is still something to be fixed with functions in the web  
but

that will be fixed in the next firmware which is coming soon .

It works brilliant for reproducing music with text messages or mms  
etc.

Feel free to ask questions about it.


It doesn't bother me but other vi people said that they find it  
annoying

that there is no little marker on the five.

Well, I'm afraid, if there are any branded phones except Samsung and  
Intex, which support dual sim and both mentioned brands don't have  
symbian OS on those models - still you ought to check this out with  
Samsung, if they do have any dual sim phones with symbian as an OS on  
it.


I've once used dual-sim holders/adapter with my then existing nokia  
phone with talks installed on it, when I was in England and those  
holders are still available in UK. You also get to check this thingy  
out in some grey market here in India.


Nokia WME 2010 in Barcelona already indicated that they rolling out  
some new models with dual-sim and symbian installed on them in later  
half of this year. I guess Talks should be working fine on those.

Hi All

I personally use freecall, justvoip, intervoip and nymgo. There are  
plenty available but the above mentioned voip softwares are the  
cheapest ever available even much cheaper than skype with a loads of  
credit filling options, (which means you don't need to have credit  
card) with flat rates to any network or unlimited phone calls to  
particular country. Also these above mentioned softwares give you free  
unlimited calls to some countries like US. These softwares also works  
with SIP settings, which allow you to use softwares with any smart  
phones. Please note that to make free unlimited phone calls within US  
and 0.010 cents to India - you must have a little credit atleast.


To check out rates and more information visit www.freecall.com and 
www.intervoip.com

Also do share, if someone find something cheaper than this.

Hiya,

I strongly do reckon either RFID or WiMax rather than Bluetooth- 
thingy. As Bluetooth 2.1 (EDR) works on 2.4 gigs, which has very low  
distant frequency. Also at CES 2010 Bluetooth 3.0 has been shown,  
which has fixed most of the relative issues that might take a little  
longer to come over India, as they still have it on pilot project.

My position on NGOs is that as long as they do not use oppressed
groups as mere spectators, some considerations should be given. One
does not need to agree or disagree with everything of any given
organization. But as long as I am allowed to share a slice of the
cake, I don?t care who bakes it. By the term ?I?, I mean collectively
as a group. Finally I am not sure how the NFB in India is, but it is
at least a bit solid here and has been involved with some crucial
battles. But of course I disagree with them in several ways. For
example, they make worst canes and I do not understand the reason
behind that. So in a nut shell, No NGO is absolutely perfect and they
are not innocent either.

2010-02-17 Thread KARAN GUPTA

Hiya

Skype works very well on any EDGE enabled network which delivers upto  
128 Kbps. Nowadays most of the carriers have Enhanced data rate for  
GSM Evolotion (EDGE) compatibility spectrum. You can have a text chat  
using skype on EDGE but it's always a good idea to confirm it with  
your network provider, whether they support EDGE because there are  
always a conectivity issues after every 5-10 minutes on a plain GPRS  
connection.


Also most if the carriers provide limited ammount of data transfer at  
very low cost say - 25 migs for Rs. 25 every month or similar data  
plans.


BSNL  MTNL have already started their 3G services for example MTNL 3G  
Jadoo in central Delhi only, but both of them do it in very limited  
area. Once the 3G spectrum auctions problem will be fixed in quater 2,  
2010, there won't be any area limitations then as skype free calls  
works wonderfully on 3G. I use mine on Idea (network) all over the  
country for text chats and make free calls if I manage to find some  
hotspot somewhere around.

I use it here effectively. It may not be as good as broadband, but  
certainly you will be able to converse with your skipe contacts.  
Also BSNL is going to have 3g soon and when it becomes active, it

At present, for example, BSNL prepaid GPRS costs around RS. 5 per MB.
Does Skype work effectively on GPRS connectivity?

Firstly you can never go into cd drive, unless you have cd already  
inserted in it. Secondly, as suggested by someone here that delete  
those files into cd drive. You can only delete those files on CD-RW.  
It seems the warning message on your computer means, you have already  
copied your files into cd but forgot to burn them. Try to burn those  
copied files into cd and see if it helps?

[AI] Experience with talks mobile speak

2010-02-13 Thread KARAN GUPTA

Hello Folks,

Just a quick note to share my mobile device experience with a state of  
the art gadget - iPhone 3GS. Firstly, I've been using and  
experimenting various talking softwares from London and Chicago, which  
are locally developed and much popular Talks and Mobile Speak on  
different symbian based handsets. But for past six months, I switched  
over to iPhone 3GS which comes with several built-in accessibility  
options for blind, partially-blind and deaf people. Though I  
personally use it's built-in magnifier and speech technology  
specifically meant for partially blind. And believe me guys - nothing  
can be better than this. It works so smoothly and wonderfully without  
any lags at all. I'd highly recommend it to any partially-blind fellow  
as it does wonder, once you get used to it and have the same feel of  
being fully sighted. I can't shed much light on it's fully-fledged  
talking software for blind as I don't use it but whatever I've used it  
little  so far it worked great. I'd be happy to give it's  
demonstration to anyone genuine in Delhi, who can further review it,  
compare it and can feel the power of new technologies. Many Thanks.


Kindest Regards
- Karan Gupta
