Org Subject: [access-uk] Eye-Pal solo Hi I understand that Humanware will be exhibiting the Eye-pal solo at S.V. next week. The Solo is a stand alone reading machine which is much faster than most scanners. The main difference appears to be that you place your document or book on a stand, as you would read it, i.e. cover downwards, so to turn a page you need not physically pick up the book, just turn over the page. It is said to be a great deal faster. If anyone knows more about this, including the cost, I would be interested. there is a presentation which I have not heard, but this can be found at http://www.accessibleworld.org/content/accessible-world-presents-eye-pal-lou is-herrera David ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
