Hi, All,

I think that some of the reasons for many not using the Optacon are the =
noise and the vibration.  That's why I hope that some means of tactile =
delivery can be found that will do away with both.

Hi All,

I haven't jumped in here, yet.  But, all these uses for the Optacon are=20
great.

I use my Optacon to look at labels on frozen meat.  When they wrap fresh =

meat at the grocery store, often the label is stuck on to hold the paper =

closed and goes around the edge of the package.  The KNFB Reader will =
read=20
these labels if they're relatively flat on the package.  But, when the=20
writing is at an odd angle, because of the shape of the package, nothing =

else will work.  I just pulled out my Optacon and checked the package I=20
found in the freezer.  In seconds, I knew it was ground beef.

It really is sad that more people didn't learn to use this wonderful =
little=20
machine.

Hi all,
Mark, you had a really extensive list of things to do with the Optacon. =
I
concur with all of them, but wonder how you use it to tell if a light is =
on
or off, and also about stains on clothing. How does that work?
