I'm forwarding this on because the open-ended questions do concern the use of both braille and computer technology by the blind. My assumption, given the email address in the text, is that the survey is legitimate.

Subject: Understanding the Needs of Blind & Visually Impaired (University
Survey)
Date: Sunday, February 06, 2011 11:32 AM
Hello,
I'm part of a team of graduate students at North Carolina State University,
and we're working on developing technologies into products that may help the
blind and visually impaired. We are very interested in learning more from
individuals who are blind and/or visually impaired so we can better
understand the needs and problems that are present today, particularly
regarding the accessibility of information.
We are in the very early stages of research, and would be grateful for a few
minutes of your time, if you can spare a moment to complete our brief
10-question survey and/or share it with others:

With best regards,
