The Kenwood TS-2000 remote control software seems to be very accessible.  I haven't used it with the radio, but I have navigated it a little with JAWS to test for accessibility.  You could just control it from your PC.  I'm going to try that with my TS-480.  In addition, the 2000 speech in combination with Morse Code prompts means that the 2000 is one of the most accessible full-featured rigs out there.  I hope that they come up with a new version of the 2000 with the 480 speech chip that speaks many more features then the one in the 2000.

73,

Ken

Icom 910 is 2 meters and 440 only with a 1296 option, it has no HF and probably costs about as much as the Kenwood by the time it's said and done, Kenwood having 160 all the way up, all but 900 MHz and 220.
