I've got a customer who just hired a vision challenged employee. They are not fully blind but can see things up close or with really big font. The customer did some research on an application described below:
Product Name: Mobile Magnifier for Windows Mobile Smartphones (Mobile Manifier Smartphone, MM-W, MMS
Product Type: Full Screen magnifier
Supported Software platform: Windows Mobile 5 and 6-Standard edition (formerly called Smartphone edition)
Support device type: Mobile phones/smartphonesThis is a one off solution and they are using Pocket Browser. Does anyone have experience with this software or can recommend something similar to this solution?Thanks!

We had the same challenge from our customer. We suggested: 1. Provide the user both a mobile device and laptop on a cart. Use Microsoft CE Remote Tools ( or any remote control) and use the 3x magnify option of the remote control tool. The user views the screen on the laptop, and does the scans on the device, no changes needed top the Apps. See the attached pic 2. Use a VC5090 on a cart 3. Use a MK4000 on a cart 4. See if Text to Speech apps would work
There are some other software options for Windows Mobile screen magnification at http://www.adisasta.com/home_index.html Best Regards, Ian Hatton EMb EMEA
