Hi Jackie that is John Lewis for you *smile*.  I paid my £20!!! this
afternoon and the girl told me it would take her an hour!!!!  When she came
back with it, I said I cannot hear it speaking so she said Cerie (excuse
spelling) is turned on and checked again and said 'Look you can see it is
turned on'.  Note I did have my guide dog with me and she even knows Neela's
name!!!  Then I said, sorry, I cannot hear anything so she turned up some
sort of sound, I can only describe like a Windows boot-up sound and said,
surely you can hear that!!!!  I said I could indeed, I was more interested
in hearing the Voice Over!!!!  I then had to wait about 10 minutes while her
colleague dealt with another customer and she asked him to come along to
have a look.  He sorted it.  I think it was on OK but the volume was
obviously turned down, strange really as I'd turned the voice over on last
night when someone told me to tap the home key 3 times so what she did with
it I do not know.  Anyway, then I learned she had done this for the first
time!!!!

Eleanor,

Once VoiceOver is turned on, there isn't much else to do, so not sure why
they would charge you 20 quid to do that, it takes seconds.  They offered to
put in my Email account etc, but I wanted to do everything else myself.  Is
it the iPad Mini you have?  All these generations are rather confusing.

Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Subject: [BCAB] Apple iPad

I know Jackie in an earlier mail informed us of her positive experience of
purchasing an iPad in the Apple Store in Belfast.  I have looked at an iPad
today, apparently 4th generation (think Jackie's is 3rd generation) so
before purchasing I just want to check with all you Apple experts that this
new 4th generation iPad will have all the accessability features.  Hefty
price of six hundred and fifty five pounds includes VAT, and five hundred
and forty-five pounds excluding the VAT.  The particular store is prepared
to give me the VAT off but says tht there would be a £20 for setting it up.
I thought apart from turning voice over on, it more or less works out of the
box.
