Hi Dónal
Just to throw in my two cents also.
Fleksy is a nice application because it lets you type incredibly fast, and this
even applies to when VoiceOver is off for sighted users. Sighted users don't
have to focus as much on what they're typing if they already know how to
touch-type, and it
I saw a post the other day letting everyone know about another app like Fleksy.
It is called message in the dark. It is listed for one dollar and ninety nine
cents. I know nothing about it, but found it interesting.

Right, I get that a lot hasn't been done. But, features are still
beeing added (even if they are few).

Hey Nick,
Great post and one of the reasons I like this list. No slamming detected.
Like yourself, I'm reporting bugs to Apple all the time and giving the same
feedback. Also like yourself (I think anyway?) I write my own software so

no question Josh. But my fear is that Apple thinks it has done all it needs to
for those of us who are blind and need to access these devices. They have
responded to the need to provide accessibility by developing voiceover. Yep
it's free, generally usable and ticks oh I'd say, 85% of the
Interesting that there's now a TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog) article today
