At least two of us have been through the manual, and can't see where it does anything for accessibility as such, though some of the key combinations could well be useful, but suspect we could do those things with ordinary palm size bt keyboards. Some users just feel more at ease with real buttons, so might appreciate this; but it is a much more restricted market than the developers guessed.
