I don't miss small links <smile> I use voiceover on my iphone and my ipod touch.

For example, iPhone 3GS has this type of screen and VoiceOver screen reader. Blind users have the possibility to "discover" links, buttons and other elements by sliding one finger on the screen. Sighted users can -more or less- see the links, and even zoom in to enlarge their size, but a blind user will probably miss small links. Regards, Ramón.

Was there some assumption about the distribution of perceptual ability across all low vision users? Could that be applied to people with limited dexterity? -- Jonnie Appleseed with his Hands-On Technolog(eye)s reducing technology's disabilities one byte at a time
