Please join us on TechTalk on Monday, march 14, for a power-packed presentation 
from HIMS, inc, including a preCSUN announcement you won't want to miss.

 

In November of 2010, HIMS opened an office in Austin, TX to more directly serve 
its North American customers in the ways of sales and distribution, technical 
support, and repair service. On Monday, march 14, you will be introduced to 3 
staff members of the Austin office, learn about the newest in high-quality 
notetaker, DAISY player, and low vision products from HIMS, and hear 
demonstrations of our newest firmware features for BookSense, Braille Sense, 
and Voice sense, including a first look at what's coming in Braille Sense and 
Voice Sense version 6.

 

James Mccarthy, the president of the Austin office, will introduce himself and 
talk about the US-based office and its goals, and will introduce you to our 
newest high-definition desktop magnifier. Jenny Axler, HIMS technical Support 
Specialist, will talk briefly about the newest notetaker and BookSense products 
and introduce the newest firmware features of each. Scott Hegle, HIMS Regional 
sales Manager, will demonstrate some of the most exciting features of these 
firmware upgrades. Tune in to TechTalk and be among the first to get a sneak 
peek at the much-anticipated next firmware upgrade for the Braille Sense and 
Voice Sense notetakers.
