many of them I si

Your going to need the following:
1. A USB to Serial connector, I would suggest the unit for KeySpan as
I have tested it and know that it works.
2. A null modem cable or a modem cable and a null modem adapter to
connect to it.

Hi,
What is the connection between the iMac and the BB? Is it using a

I don't know if this message got through, so I am reposting.
I think NFB is thinking of Duxbury when they told you what they said.
Louis is different.
Let's try and troubleshoot it.

Hi,
I'm thinking that NFB is thinking of Duxbury, where it shows up on
screen in Braille first. What proceedure are you using to print the
document? What connection is physically attaching the BB to the
computer. If you are using an USB to serial adapter, is its driver
installed. Is it showing up

Hello all,
There is a promotional software bundle of 9 apps for $49.95 available
from MacUpdate. This may be of special interest to people who watch
DVD movies, because 3 of the 9 apps are devoted to DVD ripping,
converting to various platforms, and watching movies on a digital

Hi yeah I hope that mozilla will make firefox accessible I mean it's

if you're gonna take that approach about the iphone and firefox and

Good afternoon,
The original goal was for Firefox to be accessible on the Mac in Q2 of
2009. It looks like it may be Q3 now. This information comes from a

hey, Ben,
this is good news!!! I love when I hear good stories about apple
employees not only knowing what voiceover is, but wanting to help
improve it!!! I've never even been to the apple store here in

there. but when I do I
Hi Arthur and Dan,
Dan has answered the main question by pointing out that you can use VO-
H to get information on the fields in an address book, but here are a

Can folks on this board help me out here? I don't see the point of
an accessible iPhone. The fluid dynamic of screen touch technology
combined with GUI interface seems like it is just a counter accessible
design form the get go. Once you make the thing accessible it is no
longer
ok! it would be very nice, thank you in advance.

braille display features of VoiceOver. I understand it's basics and

The 7th and 8th dots are used as prefixes for capital letters and
number signs in a regular 6 dot braille.
In order to indicate that the letter is capital you use the 7th dot.
In order to say that some dot pattern is a number you use 8th dot in a
