Might Like to Be Aware of:
- (2006): After Neoconservatism
- : "I was curious as Apple products have been more than just up market gadgets to me... my access to the many things... those of us with deafblindness particularly struggle with.... I am severely deaf and have only a very small tunnel of vision in my right eye.... I decided to order the Apple Watch Sport 42mm (the bigger face size) with white strap so I’d not lose it quite so easily.... The default settings I have on my iPhone are set to large text and I was pleased to be able to have this on my Apple Watch. I also use Zoom large text set to the largest. The new setting ‘Prominent Haptic’ is perhaps my favourite in accessibility... definitely awesome for me as a deafblind person. So far for me the most useful App on the Apple Watch is Maps--on my iPhone I can plan my journey from one destination to another, for me it will be on foot with Unis my guidedog. This is where Haptics really come into its own--I can be directed without hearing or sight, but by a series of taps via the watch.... I am now very happy to own an Apple Watch and look forward to making it work well for me."
