Eric, if you'd like to hear an interview with Kunal Sood, there's a podcast on the Tech Doctor Web site. Kunal tells the story of how he designed Lire without consciously considering issues of accessibility. After its release, he got an email thanking him for making the app accessible to the blind. He said he simply followed Apple's software design guidelines to the letter, and the result was an accessible app. Since being made aware of the needs of VoiceOver users, he has gone out of his way to maintain Lire as a totally accessible offering.
