Ricardo, apparently that has been changed. AFB sponsored an iPhone workshop at our recent ACB of Texas conference this past weekend. We decided to test this because there was a discussion about tripple click home and whether this standard any more. It didn't work on any of the iPhones we had present, unless it was set up in the VoiceOver utility. I guess too many of our sighted friends using iPhones turned VoiceOver on and couldn't figure out how to get it off. My husband said that at one time there was a link or something on the Apple website that said "Turn VoiceOver off." I've noticed that some of these sighted folks panic when they get VoiceOver going. I guess that some of them don't listen to the hints.
