<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi Dennis,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I would think that Deaf folks could use some of the
iPhone apps that convert speech to text, for listening to a HAM radio. I
put one on my phone for a Deaf client with low vision so we could
communicate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But being adapted to Blindness, I would say it
would be worse to lose your hearing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>This list has seen one of a few of my frustrations,
that being when companies ignore the needs of a portion of its
customers.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Honestly, it would add very little to products to
put speech output on them, and Braille too.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But I do build computers, and walk and run
independently, and have a full-time job, and do my own home maintenance.
Sometimes I might have to ask someone the color of a wire for example, but for
the most part, it is not a big deal.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I think that I'm in better shape than most people
my age because I walk a lot.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>For more information on Blindness, check
out:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: monospace,monospace">I am a
professional musician. And I often wondered if I was going to lose hearing or
sight and could choose, which would I prefer. And even though I love music, I
think I'd rather lose my hearing. You can do 90% of the things you did before
you lost your ears.</DIV>

<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: monospace,monospace">To say the

radio and communicate.</DIV>
