Hi, All,

The Video-Tim is, or probably was, similar to the Optacon, except that the 
image was displayed on a refreshable array of dots rather than on an array of 
vibrating reeds.  The image was input through a camera similar to that of the 
Optacon.

At an approximate cost of 14,000 euros, or $21,000, this was prohibitively 
expensive.

But, I guess this has disappeared as well, or so it seems ...
