If it's so possible, how # come no one has done it? It has been done before. Or more to the point, it is being done. Apple has built a screen reader into their operating system. No, it isn't absolutely perfect, but we can expect improvement as it developes. LG has put speech into some of their phones that allows a blind person to access the menu system. The question isn't why isn't anyone doing it, but rather why aren't more companies doing it. Lorenzo - -- Keep American Idol great!
