DESCRIPTION:This talk is a preview of the one that will be given at Mobile
 s for the Senior Market on the 26th of October. It looks at the problems o
 f current designs and how they can be addressed. The talk argues that the 
 approach of simplify existing user interaction frameworks does not address
  the needs of older users and that different interaction designs are requi
 red. It also discusses the issue of aesthetics and why it is important not
  stigmatise older users. The talk includes a video that shows just how har
 d it is for older users to just turn a phone on!\n
