8 Gadgets for Disabled Computer Users

A Braille PDA, a foot mouse, a breath-controlled device that allows computer users to move a cursor around a screen by blowing into a microphone.

There are several gadgets on the market right now, and more on the horizon, that make it easier for people with disabilities to use computers, and TakePart.com reviews some of their favorites.

You don't have to be disabled to want the futuristic-looking, LED-lit, ergonomic Gravitonus work station (above), but it was designed for people who are paralyzed. Among its many features is a special attachment that aligns three screens with the user's best field of vision in any body position. It also has surround-sound and a subwoofer built into the back of the seat so the sound is felt, not just heard.

Only..
the ONLY problem with 99% of these products is PRICE.
Its NOT that they COST that much to make, its that you are PAYING for a product that is LESS KNOWN/USED and the time between sales.
