Sarah Hibbeln's curator insight, September 23, 2013 8:32 PM

My thoughts on this was: 

how can Apple and Samsung team up? They are big arrivals to each other?!? 

Every since Steve Jobs died they are just coming up with different names and forms of the iPhone 5! 

And I think Apple needs to take some time and come out with something very new for the iPhone!

This shows hoe growing technology increases to help people with and without disabilities. Compared to Rhodes that has limited access and help for the dissabled, these inventions offer great support overcoming these obstacles. A story can be done on why these objects are not made readily available to more disabled people.
