Yes, Mary, I couldn't agree with you more that it's terrible to be without an Optacon once you've used one for so many years. It was simply wonderful to get the mail this evening, find out that it was junk and throw it away, nobody had to know what I got in the mail, even though it was junk!! Lerae PS JAWS says my name as if it's a guy's name, it's not. Of course, who would have thought my name would present a technological challenge. It's always been one that needs to be spelled for people. I was named after a nurse, and they didn't know how to spell hers. Happy Optaconning.
