Looks like a very nice app. Here's a link for a democast.

Flipboard is nice and you can link different accounts to it like your Facebook 
profile, Twitter and so on. It's supposed to be similar to a magazine so 
there's a big visual emphasis to it, but even then, it's still pretty 
accessible. I believe that there's a democast on how to use it with Voiceover 
out there on one of the technology blindcentric sites, but I forgot which one. 
The iPad version works different than the iPhone version though.

Subject: Nice News App

Hi All,
My Media Specialist told me I should take a look at an app called flipboard all 
one word.  It is a news app that lets you choose the categories of news you 
want then presents you with the headlines.  If you find one you want to read 
just double tap on it and it opens and can be read with VO.  Flipboard is quite 
accessible.  All the buttons work.  There is also a guide that I haven't played 
with yet.  Three finger swipe to move down a page works but the sound we are 
used to isn't there but the page does advance. There are buttons at the top of 
the screen and the bottom of the screen.  I have to play with it a lot more but 
it looks promising.  There is a sign in but you don't need it.
I use the two finger swipe down to read an entire article.

Have fun -Steve
P.S. Did I mention it's free?
