Do you mean the trackpad? My addition to the idea should address that. You would use your qwerty keys to input Braille.

I can tell you this: VO will not work with the client at all. once you start the client to log-in, you get no voice out of VO. The way I played before involved a very large screen and my being very close (less than a foot). made for some very hard raiding, but it was doable, just. as for the sou

Yuma, I played that game for a better part of 3 years before I lost my remaining sight 5 months ago. even for a low partial, it was hard, but fun. unfortunately, it is no longer playable for me (unless they can fix the sound environment). -Eric On Dec 16, 2010, at 2:50 PM, Yuma Decaux wrote:
