Recently I thought, why not update these articles, and put them in to a book to share my tips with others, and to make a place where I, and others, can go to find out tips on getting the most out of their Apple devices.īut I guess the biggest reason for me doing this, is that it just works for me out of the box for speech output, and using and maintaining all of these devices for me and my family is only possible because it is accessible.
