I'm writing on behalf of a wheelchair-bound paraplegic who is beginning to lose coordination in his arms. He would like any information available on ways to use the macintosh through voice recognition, control of household devices like light switches and appliances, etc... What products are available? I'm sure they aren't cheap. Are there grants or Beta-tester type setups that he could apply for? What about handicapped user groups? What is the best source for this type of info? Thanks in advance... Thomas Summerall thomas@eleazar.dartmouth.edu
