This week, the Accessible World International Tek Talk online training event
is proud to present a demonstration of the many features of Mobile Speak
Pocket, the first screenreader released for persons who are blind that runs
on a wide array of Windows Mobile PDAs and cellular phones. Drawing upon his
extensive background in product evaluation, training, and deploying adaptive
technologies for consumers in a variety of educational and vocational
settings, Larry Lewis will take the audience on a tour of his PDA while
demonstrating how he uses this software to access an otherwise inaccessible
device to perform a variety of tasks.  Finally, he will conclude by
illustrating how Mobile Speak Pocket offers users refreshable Braille access
if they elect to use the BrailleNote as a Braille input/output device in
conjunction with their PDA.  He'll also be debuting HumanWare's Braille
Connect Series of refreshable Braille displays as an alternative for users
in the market for an affordable, portable line of Braille displays that can
interact with mainstream PDAs.
