Hi Steve
I don't want to get into a public slapping, but I can assure you that K-Reader
works and, what's more, it's portable! (smile).

Hi Jackie,
Course, you didn't see the most interesting product, SiRecognizer <Smile>.
It's like K Reader, but it works <Smile>.
All the best
Steve

Hi All
Can I just thank all those who came to say hello at Sight Village this week.
It was lovely to put voices to some very familiar names on the list.
I didn't get much of a chance to wander around because of strutting my stuff
on the Sight and Sound stand, but I did have enough time to pop over to the
Cobolt stand, and look at their new ITell gadget. For anyone who doesn't know
about this, it is a small device that plugs into the bottom of an Ipod that
enables us mortals with little or no sight to use the Ipod with speech. I
thought this was a really interesting gadget. It doesn't work on either the
Shuffle or Itouch, but all the other models seem to support it. The only thing
that concerns me, however, is how one would transfer material from their PC to
the Ipod if Itunes software isn't accessible. Perhaps some who do this already
would like to elaborate as it might potentially be a stumbling block.
The ITell retails at £59.95 I believe, but I thought it was the most
interesting gadget other than the K-Reader phone, of course! (smile).
Anyone else see anything interesting and "different" this year?
