Hi Chris

Thanks so much to everyone at GDS for conducting this survey and sharing the results-this is really valuable data!

Other than speech input software, did you ask about keyboard or alternative input device usage (for example switch based systems)? This seems to me to be one area where we still lack good data that could help us:
* understand more about the needs and preferences of people who don't need a screen reader but can't or don't use a pointing device
* establish the validity of current assumptions on how best to design for this population's needs
