[access-uk] Re: Cobolt Product Review

Hi Eleanor.

Well, that's something that we could debate about all day *smile*.  Blindness 
related products are always going to be more expensive than their sighted 
counterparts, I myself would like to see a talking panel on all my kitchen 
appliances IE washing machine, cooker etc and take full advantage of all the 
functions that the sighted enjoy.

All the best, Ibrahim.

  Sorry Ibrahim the point I was really making is that for the speech, the 
little there is (but essential no doubt) costs a lot of money.

    Hi Eleanor.

    In point of fact, the microwave that Cobolt use is made by LG electronics, 
and is very high quality.  They're not going to put a speech module in to a 
cheap and inferior product.  I don't think Cobolt could or would try to get 
away with that.

    All the best, Ibrahim.

      I am told that its high cost relates to the speech and not to the 
standard of microwave, that it is just a standard microwave.

        It does not have a visual display but I am fairly sure the actual 
buttons are marked visually so a sighted person should be able to use it.

        I checked my Emails late last night and may have picked this up wrong 
being half asleep, but did Ibrahim or someone say that the Cobolt talking 
microwave with oven and grill does not have a visual display? This surely would 
make it difficult for sighted people to use who didn't want to use speech? 
There are sighted people who live with me so if there was no display then the 
device would not be suitable.
