I glad that we actually think about our blind fellows, so much that half of the stuff we do for them...can't be used by them.

To logic 101: it is no where near as bad as the option to take your driver's liscense test in braille offered in CA.
One day I will invent a braille speedometer.

Woah, woah. My license is up for renewal in a couple months. I shall go ask about this to see if it's true.

And I thought braille for drive-up ATM machines was stupid...

The ad was probably intended for facilities like hospitals and treatment centers that actually need to stock braille books. That or it was meant for family members of the blind person.

The reason they have braille on drive up ATMs is because the regular ATMs are required to have braille, and it's cheaper to just manufacture them all the same.

yeah, but, come on, that was just poor taste. saying "things which you've never seen before" about products for blind people is just mean.
