Just noting that if accessibility was front and center, the tablet wouldn't be priced exorbitantly. Let's take this for what it is, good PR

  That's an extremely cynical take.

    Sad, but true. There couldn't be a better PR plug than this for Apple, as they continue to price their products outside the affordability of the disabled. If 70% of the blind are unemployed, how can they afford an iPad?

      They are probably getting disability benefits, and there are many private charities that assist the blind. Very likely that a blind person who needs a tablet or PC can get one at minimal to zero cost.

      Go check the price of JAWS. By your logic anyone making great is just doing that for PR.

Worth noting, perhaps, that very few blind people actually own a JAWS license that they paid for themselves. The majority[citation needed] either get grants from charities, financial help if they're in work or studying, or use a pirated copy.
