Or if they're selling to consumers (so it's end-users making the decision), some form of the wheelchair-symbol thingey? -- Nick Kew In urgent need of paying work - see http://www.webthing.com/~nick/cv.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Universal" does makes good sense, Nick. yes, the wheelchair is great, and a 'magnifying glass' symbol might be good too. I think the text "assistive" or "assisting" would be very appropriate. Perhaps you/they can "quickly" survey to determine what category name would get used - possibly a poll. ? Stephen Jones
