Looks like you'll need to keep your money G!! (smile). Good for the job and reasonably priced, but not flattering to wear.

I've just taken delivery of my RNIB sonic eye glasses, and first impressions are good. They feel sleek and are solidly built, and although they're made of plastic, they're rugged and durable not to mention quite comfortable. They have both audio and vibratory feedback and are charged via USB either via plugging the supplied cable in to a USB port on your PC or in to the supplied travel adaptor. If anyone wants to know more about them, I'd be happy to answer any specific questions, but my general impression and probably a lasting one is that RNIB have yet again come up with a very useful product at a fare price, certainly within the affordability range of most if not all persons who feel they could use a sonic aid but who might be put off by the pricier alternatives. All the best, Ibrahim. __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 5999 (20110330) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com http://www.bbc.co.uk/ This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated.
