I was able to add new contacts to the contacts list, read and compose email, and interact with most of the settings while encountering only a few small accessibility glitches as listed above.
Note that Comcast High Speed Internet subscribers have access to email, contacts & settings, but the User must be a COmcast phone subscriber in order to have access to the voicemail, text and phone call functions. I am not a comcast phone customer, so was not able to fully evaluate those functions and would welcome input from any comcast customers who are able to evaluate the accessibility of the voicemail, text and phone functions.

- Fixed crash issues - Fixed issues with Composing emails - Improved folder selection - Improved background operations - Improved performance
Version 5.1
What's new in version 5.1:
- Support for iOS 8 - Email notification options - ability to choose email notification with or without Alerts - Fixed crash issues - Performance improvements - Support for Spanish language
Bryan's notes: VO access seems unchanged from version 5.0.1. The app is mostly usable at this point, with the continuing notable exception of the Account section and several button labeling issues as detailed in the app description.
