Apple

Disability advocates are demanding that government do more to increase the accessibility of the Internet and broadband devices, especially mobile phones.
And their pleas haven't fallen on deaf ears.

Congressman Edward J. Markey, a Massachusetts Democrat and former chairman of the House's Internet subcommittee, introduced a bill in Congress last year
that would require providers of Internet services and devices -- from desktop computers to smart phones -- to make user interfaces accessible to people
with disabilities. The bill, still in committee, has more than two dozen sponsors.

We have discussed the advancements Apple has made in accessibility to Mac OS X and even the iPhone in the past, but recent examples show that Apple's attention to detail in technologies like VoiceOver and Voice Control can make all the difference in the world for users with speech or sight impairments. These technologies are earning Apple awards and the appreciation of users and further separate Apple from the competition.
