But they sure can find a lawyer. Next you know they will be suing Apple for no tactile keys. I really feel sorry for the blind but this is pushing the envelope.

It’s nonsense for them to clutter up the legal system with this sort of crap as long as there are worthier causes.

Apple provides Voiceover to allow the blind to use an iPhone. The system "speaks" the letters on the virtual keypad and then you double-tap to enter a particular key. I guess with millions of phones out there, Apple wanted to be sure it wasn't hit with silly law suits such as this one against Redbox.
