[Irl-dean] The Mobile Web

[Joshue O Connor]

Hi all,

Shawn Henry just posted a request to the WAI Interest Group list some of 
you may have seen it. If not, here it is:

Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,

We are interested in collecting experiences, stories, and perspectives 
on people with disabilities using the Web via mobile devices. For 
example: What are use cases of accessing the Web via a mobile device 
that are particularly useful for a person with a disability? What are 
unique issues accessing the Web via mobile device (versus desktop or 
laptop) for people with disabilities?

We are also interested in similar information about Web access via 
mobile device by "seniors", older users who may have Web accessibility 
needs related to aging. Are there cases when accessing the Web via a 
mobile device is particularly useful for older users, or they have 
unique issues using the Web via a mobile device?

Please note that we are limiting the scope of this query to *specific 
accessibility issues using the Web*, and *not* more general hardware 
issues, non-Web functionality, etc.

Thank you for any ideas you share.

Regards,
~Shawn

If anyone is interested they can pass their ideas onto me and I will 
forward them onto Shawn, or ideally subscribe to the WAI list and post 
directly!

Cheers

Josh
