Hi Damon, just googled it and had a quick look at the Google page on the 
project.  My first thought is that it seems to only be available for Android 
phones - perhaps I didn't delve deeply enough...

All the best,
Barry G

  an interesting product mix. 

  I take it you guys have all been looking at the Google Goggles project with 
interest? So, if you're abroad, you take a photo of, say, a restaurant menu 
with your phone, you send it to google, and is automatically translated into 
English text. 

  It's basic OCR technology which is then fed through Google translater. 

  Has the significance for visually impaired people been noted by the 
Googleplex? Skip the translater bit, I'd be happy just to receive the text. And 
it's free gratis, no charge, free free free.

    Hi Barry.

    As an aside, I rang up the company who put in the advert as there was no 
pricing on their website for the product, they want £695 for this software plus 
they tried to sell me half a day's training for an additional £395 not to 
mention polarizing lenses and a strap for the phone to secure it.  An absolute 
rip-off considering.

    All the best, Ibrahim.

      This member has been removed for breech of Guidelines.

       

      This is a full blown advert.

       

      No prior permission was sought or given to post this to the list.

       

      It probably would have been allowed if it was more concise.  More 
importantly the Professional part of the companys name wasn't put into practice 
in-terms of asking for permission instead of spamming the list.
