Do you have a Simbion 60 operating system cell phone? If so, I know of a
free GPS program you might be able to download.

My name is Elray Smith I have a Guide Dog from San Raphael CA and the
Braille Note BT , here's the deal I am very grateful for my equipment ever
so grateful, however, I do not have a GPS which is a very important piece of
equipment for the blind as you are aware but I can not afford one with my
income. So, can you suggest or shine any light on my situation? I really am
very mobile.
Warm Regards

Sendero Group, HumanWare and Kurzweil/NFB donate adaptive technology for the
Stevie Wonder 11th annual House Full of Toys Benefit Concert
This past Saturday evening, December 16, 2006, Mike May had the pleasure of
joining Stevie Wonder on the stage of the Gibson Amphitheater in Los
Angeles, along with 15 stars, to present a GPS from Sendero Group, a
BrailleNote from HumanWare and two KNFB readers from Kurzweil and the
National Federation of the Blind. Three students were selected to receive
these devices. Stevie and Mike acknowledged the tremendous value of these
tools in their own lives and announced that they hoped this was only the
beginning of their efforts to bring the reading and navigation independence
of this technology to more blind people.
Mike said, "When Stevie invited me to his party, I asked what I could bring.
With one email to Ray Kurzweil and another to HumanWare, I had arranged for
a generous donation of $13,000 of access technology in support of Stevie's
effort to bring joy and independence to under privileged youth. I was joined
by Dirk Marais of HumanWare at the concert to hear a line-up of incredible
performers. After leaving the stage in front of 6000 people, Stevie was kind
enough to keep me by his side and to boast about the technology to his
friends and family. This benefit certainly embodied the title of his most
recent album, A Time to Love." For photos and audio go to

Special guest artists included Al Jarreau, Brian McKnight, COMMON, Tyrese,
Corinne Bailey Rae, India Arie, Danny Carreras, Donald Lawrence, Gary
Taylor, Yolanda Adams, Chris Tucker and more.
Past performers have included Alicia Keyes, Angie Stone, Babyface, Doug E.
Fresh, George Duke, Arie, Jamie Foxx, Jill Scott, Jonathan Butler, Joss
Stone, Kanye West, Karen Clark Sheard and Kierra "Kiki" Sheard, Kem, Kim
Burrell, L.D. Miller, Luther Vandross, Macy Gray, Maroon 5, Michael
McDonald, Natalie Cole, Nelly, Raphael Saadiq, Raul Midon, Ruben Studdard
and Ziggy Marley-along with dozens of others.
This was the 11th year that Stevie's House Full of Toys Benefit Concert has
been one of the highlights of the holiday musical season. In the past ten
years, hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of toys, computers, games and
educational aids have gone to children, families and organizations in need.
Stevie Wonder and his friends are committed to a celebration that will let
the world know that they care.
For several years, Stevie Wonder's We Are You Foundation has made a generous
Christmas donation to the Junior Blind of America. As in the past, Stevie
attended the Junior Blind annual Holiday Festival, personally bringing
Holiday cheer to the children and their families. Information about the
organization is available at www.juniorblind.org.
Stevie Wonder's House Full of Toys Benefit Concert-goers are asked to bring
an unwrapped gift of joy to the concert. Stevie Wonder's
11th Annual House Full of Toys Benefit Concert is a Wonder Productions and
Hammond Entertainment event. For further information, go to
