		<description><![CDATA[Last week, Google announced that its Book Search would be available for iPhone and other mobile device users. I like to read, so I thought I would see how it works and how accessible it is. I looked at another e-book reader, Stanza, in an earlier post, so I will look at the differences. As noted in the NY Times article on the accouncement, Google and Amazon to Put More Books on Cellphones, the key feature is the use of text rather than images. Unlike the version of Google Book Search for PCs, which displays scanned images of book pages, the mobile version simply displays text, allowing users to download printed material more quickly over wireless networks. [PC Workd also has a good summary of the announcment.] Google has done this for the same reason as Adobe does in its Reflow command, using text allows the text to be reformatted easily for different screens and devices. Using text has a great side benefit as well, making the text accessible to accessibility modifications and to screen readers. I have never been able to use Google Book Search on my computer since the images are not amenable to my color and font [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Mobile Manufacturers Forum has a new web site devoted to Mobile Accessibility. The Global Accessibility Reporting Initiative (GARI) project was developed to provide a central information source to learn about accessibility in mobile devices. On this website you can learn about the various features that a phone may have and link through to manufacturers websites for specific information on particular models. As part of the GARI project all phones released by participating manufacturers after the 1 October 2008 will have a GARI template available for them providing specific information on the accessibility features that a particular model offers. A sample of this template is available here. This website is designed to complement this template by explaining some of those features in more detail and to help learn how to use them. The inaccessibility of cell phones has always been an issue with me. I am glad to see these folks start to take this issue more seriously. The web site is not fully developed, but has explanations of different cell phone features and styles, features to look for by type of disability and a lists of phones with accessibility features. Many of this blogs readers come here to find [...]]]></description>
