After 10 years of accessible GPS, the question isn’t should I have GPS, but which GPS should I have.
Primary considerations when choosing a GPS system:
1. User Interface
Input – Braille, telephonic or QWERTY keyboard
Output – Speech and/or Braille
2. Price
3. Multifunctional
4. Portability
Accessible GPS Choices
