Just a note to say that, at least for the experienced, having to listen to
everything doesn't slow down things much, and I personally find google one
of the easier sites to use on the net.

There are many forms of vision impairment, however, and James may be
relying on magnification rather than speech, which I would imagine would
indeed slow one down.  And I'm of course speaking as a person who has been
Blind all my life, and can imagine that having to adjust later would cause
a serious rethink of how one does things.
