After much consideration we are going for the Orcam but not the most
expensive one: I can and do use my iPhone but prefer something totally
separate where I don't need to use the phone and apps for a change.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts.
Mandy.

Hi Mandy.
If you're happy to wear glasses, don't want or can't use a smartphone, want
a device that works offline and have the capital with no ongoing costs then
the OrCam is worth considering. On the other hand, if you have a smartphone
with internet access and are comfortable using it, an app like Envision will
give you a great deal of reading accuracy with a very nominal cost. I
believe OrCam provide training on how to use their device, however Envision
have tutorial pages on their website and within the envision app to guide
you in getting started and using the most o envisions features.
Good luck and I hope which ever decision you choose works out well for you.
All the best, Ibrahim.

So after all this Steve, if you could only have one, which would you choose?
On a different topic, Steve that player you sell that is only £200 something
with wifi, sounds really good particularly as although I really like the
Victor Stream, the only reason I bought the Victor Trek was for the wifi, I
don't use the trek. But can you play audible books on this other player?
Mandy.

Hi,
You get little cable tie like things with Orcam that allow you to attach
them to any glasses. I have mine attached to my Bose Frames.
All the best
Steve

I remember people talking about attaching it to the Bose frames last year or
the year before. How did they do that?

hi John,
you can't disconnect just the camera as it is part of the right arm of the
glasses.
