Very nice. My significant other is quite excited about this. She's wondering how she can test it, but it might be a little late for that.

Very cool. My one worry is both the article AND the CEO of the company refer to voice over rather than talkback, considering it is an Android

This worries me also. I don't see them implementing Voiceover since that's an Apple product and not an Android offering. I have no experience with TalkbAck but I do here it has improved recently.
I have reached out to the writer of the TC article as a point of clarification.

At least tech crunch did a decent job with the coverage. Almost every other headline on this screamed "First tablet for the blind!" So good job.
