kestrellIf you are blind or visually impaired and haven't checked out the technology guide published by the National Braille Press, you should definitely do so

I'm constantly overwhelmed by all the new tech that is becoming accessible to blind people and, after having my iPhone for over two months, I still don't access more than a handful of its features. Plus, all those new apps that offer assistance with travel navigation? Clueless. But I just found a bunch of guides to talk me through learning how to use these features.
If you are a visually impaired smartphone user, you have probably spent as much time as I have trying to find documentation for accessibility features, with frustratingly little profit, but these guide make it quick and easy to learn what you want to learn.
There are guides for both iPhone and Android users, and there are guides on particular subjects such as navigation and GPS apps, ebook apps, and writing on your smartphone.
