[access-uk] Re: most accessible talking book machine

This was circulated on some U.S. lists a while back. supposedly the hardware of the Stream can no longer be upgraded to meet today's requirements for a modern talking book machine. A replacement is due out by the end of the year.
I only know what has been circulated on lists. You may want to contact Humanware in the u. S./Canada for information.

I thought I read somewhere recently that the stream had been discontinued.
Cheers

Hi Andy,

Then I would probably agree with Jackie and say the Stream is one of the
best for buttons.

All the best

Hi Steve,  I'm mainly  looking for one that has raised buttons  as I've
hardly any  feeling  in my fingers, I would like one with radio also  if
possible.  I shall now  go and look on RNIB shop  website  but if you could
advise  me  further  I would be much appreciated

Hi,

Loads of them.  Booksense, Milestone, Stream, Plextalk players, and on.
What are you looking for in particular?

By the way, RNIB sells just about all of them, and they have the instruction
manuals on their shop web site in Word format, so you can read before you
buy.

All the best

Steve
