Hello Everyone,
Recently, I attempted to locate the Google Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) user guide in either HTML or Plain Text format in order to more easily read it with a software screen reading solution for the blind and low vision.
As I was unsuccessful in locating such a version, I decided to publish my own.
Click Here to either download or view the Google Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) User Guide in HTML/Plain Text document format, complete with Hyperlinks.
Although this document contains the entire text found in the original PDF version, I have omitted example images and diagrams. In short, the formatting ain’t pretty but it works just fine for anyone using a screen reading software solution for the blind and low vision.
The document is quite large so it may take up to two minutes for it to load into your browser, be patient.
Enjoy,
Mark

Hello Everyone,
When I purchased my Nexus S, it was with the mindset that I would, once again, be taking a step into the wild frontier; not at all like the beautiful, smooth, and graceful universe of the iOS environment that I have come to know and love.
So, then, you can imagine my surprise at receiving a message upon turning on the Nexus that a OS upgrade was available and ready to be downloaded and installed.
In less than 1 minute, including the automatic reboot of the phone, I was informed that my upgrade was successful.
So, now, Boys and Girls, I am now running Android 2.3.2.
Not Bad, Google, Not Bad At All. (Smile)

Hello Everyone,
As I have spent the last 8 hours or so experimenting on how to pair my Apple Bluetooth keyboard with my Nexus S in order to not only bring the convenience of adding a hardware keyboard to the device but to also enhance Android’s limited yet functional out-of-the-box accessibility for the visually impaired, I will keep this extremely short by simply stating that I have done it and am amazed at how effective and fluid the built-in accessibility feature of Android is.
In my next post on this subject (Part 2) I will provide more details on how I paired my keyboard to Android.
I will also list some “out-of-the-box” limitations that I am sure you will find interesting.
Now keep in mind that, at the time of this post, I have not downloaded any third-party accessibility solutions.
I think I am truly going to enjoy discovering Planet Android.

Hello All,
Just a quick note to let you know that I am the proud owner of a true Google Phone, the Nexus S.
No, I did not sign up for a T-Mobile account.
So, stay tuned for Android focused articles.
Don’t’ worry, I am still completely and totally in love with my iPhone but one has to stay versatile.
Mark
