    Why do the keypads at the ATM have braile

    The ATM doesn't talk and the blind can't see what is on the screen so what is the point? What's next an IPod for the deaf?

        yeah, they do talk, there's a headphone jack on them... so you can use brail on the keypad, and plug your headphones in to listen to the options ;)

          So companies have to spend money putting on these things for the 1 or 2 blind guys that could easily get someone do it for them?

            Yeah, 'cause that's going to work real well when a blind guy is out in the city and needs some money.

            "Excuse me, sir, can you help me withdraw four hundred dollars?"

            "Sure, what's your PIN?"

            "2453... hello... are you there?"

              Not the one I was using. And the one I was using was a drive up. I certainly hope no blind fuckers are out there driving.

                  it beats getting sued for 20 million bucks every time a handicapped person wants to use an ATM, right?

                      My favorite is the brail on the drive through bank machines.

                          I have never seen a drive through bank machine.
