[senit] VI Accessibility for IPAQ's

<commercial interest>

Hi

The solution that you are looking for is the product from Code Factory, Mobile Speak Pocket (MSP), 

http://www.codefactory.es/en/products.asp?id=98

or perhaps a more suitable solution Mobile Magnifier for Pocket PC's.

http://www.codefactory.es/en/products.asp?id=129

The price for these product from the UK Distributor EnableEyes Ltd (www.enableeyes.com) are £249 excl VAT for MSP and £169 excl VAT for the Magnifier product. 

There are many features that come with both options and the best way to discover if it is the required solution is to try the 30 day free trial, easily dispensed of if deciding against the product or easily activated to a full licence otherwise.

I would gladly give further information for anyone who wishes to contact me:

Info at enableeyes.com  or (01959 524860)

There is a further option Pocket Hal from Dolphin, http://www.yourdolphin.com/productdetail.asp?id=7 this has a price of £395 excl VAT.  There is also a free trial, which I believe is of the same duration as Mobile Speak Pocket.  Trialling both products would allow 60 days in total, for experimentation.

Hi 

Does anyone know of solutions available for HP Ipaqs (or other hand held
organisers compatible with Outlook) which make them more accessible for
users with a VI. The person in question can comfortably read at point 14
font size and above, so it does not need to hugely magnify the screen. I've
had a look in settings (although mine is rather old) and there does not
appear to be any accessibility options. I have found a piece of software by
Code Factory called Mobile Magnifier - does anyone have experience of using
this or have any idea of price? I've seen it on US sites for $299, which
seems quite steep.

Any info gratefully received.

Thnaks,

Claire
