Pardon me in advance if this post seems somewhat "know-it-all-ish," it is
not intended to be that at all. Here's the point though; although it
doesn't happen so often as several months ago, the Apple "I" devices have
been spelled with the capitalization on the "I" followed by the remainder of
the device type in lower case (Iphone, Ipad, Ipod). They are correctly
spelled with a lower case "I" and the following letter (typically "P") is in
upper case, followed by the remainder of the device name in lower case alpha
again. I only mention this because for those of us using a screen reader
find it much more convenient to understanda post regarding these iDevices.
For example:
iPhone - lower case "i"," upper case "P," and then again lower case "hone."
iPad - lower case "i"," upper case "P," and then again lower case "had."
iPod - lower case "i"," upper case "P," and then again lower case "hod."
And, in fact, the currency identifier from another company follows the same
pattern:
iBill - lower case "i"," upper case "B," and then again lower case "ill."
I usually refer to these in aggregate as "iDevices" (lower case "i"," upper
case "D," and then lower case "evices"). It really helps JAWS read the
iDevice type with far more aplomb!
Thank you for your attention!
