This isn't the only one of these; there have been several others about
CD and print versions...

I am interested in discussing a collaboration on the print version of
Wikipedia.
We recently developed a technology that enables the reader to press the
regular printed pages and connect to digital content. This is
particularly well suited for enabling the blind who use Braille, the
motor-impaired who use pointers and stylus', and it enables the
presentation of multi-modal content (like ASL, sub-caption, audio, etc.).
This technology, called the touch user interface (TUI) technology works
with optical media, web-based media, etc.
Because the paper becomes a conduit to content, doing it in
non-alphabetic languages helps those without keyboarding skills or a
keyboard in their language, able to access digital content.
There are some videos of the technology in use by a 7-year old at:
