A Pocket PC For The Visually Impaired?
Posted by Janak Parekh in "HARDWARE" @ 09:30 PM
OK, this is pretty cool: a Pocket PC device for the visually impaired, optionally with braille attachments!
What I'm not quite sure about is how the Pocket PC UI translates to Braille. I assume they picked the Pocket PC platform (as opposed to a customized Windows CE-based interface) for application ubiquity. If anyone has links or experience, let us know -- this kind of diversification usefully fills a niche that doesn't typically have access to the PDAs we use.
