Hi Ray and all,
Once again, we see the creation of a digital divide where those of us with PC and internet access will not be significantly impacted while those without either will be left behind. I have used TellMe via the phone for years to get sports scores and weather reports for cities to which I'm traveling.
I wonder if anyone on this list can lay their hands on stats that estimate just how many Americans lack a computer or internet access. I believe that we as ACB owe it to our members who lack internet access to act on this one with both a letter from Mitch informing Microsoft that this move away from phone access will leav some Americans out and a resolution at the 2012 convention. IF we do not act on this one, then we're certainly not scoring any points with newly blinded elders who might like to join with us.
Bob Hachey
