i wonder why they don't wish to promote independence and have the product fully accessible for inputting stations by the user. There is clearly a need for a TTS option for users who aren't computer savvy and who don't wish to be either!

Hi Pele

This confirms what I had always known.  Imagine charging you £350 for a
radio but not allowing you to put your own stations in without their say-so?
Imagine owning a mobile phone, but having to take it to your dealer to get
them to add a contact! Tosh!!


Kind Regards,

Hi Jackie and Everyone

I saw the Sonata radio at an exhibition at the end of November.  The man
from Wireless for the Blind was very keen to demonstrate how they had set up
a
station in Zimbabwe for someone that day.  I asked if we could set up the
links to the stations ourselves and he asked me why we would want to.

After some discussion he said they were still listening to ideas from
everyone and were trying to make their website more accessible.

Also, he said you could put as many presets as you wanted on the radio.  I
understood you could only have 21.

I have not bought one.

Pele
