Representative Edward J. Markey, a Massachusetts Democrat, who wrote recently enacted legislation that will require mobile devices to be more accessible to users with disabilities, said approximately three-fourths of communications and video devices need to be adapted for blind and deaf people. "Apple," he said in a statement, "is an outlier when it comes to devices that are accessible out of the box."
The iPhone 3GS, which has no physical keys at all, is one of the easiest smartphones in the world for a blind person to use, thanks to an app called VoiceOver.
