Hi Janet
Ah.... you've obviously not come across the Aftershokz bone conduction
headphones. They sit on the cheek bones and leave your ears open.

Hmm!
Sounds interesting, particularly as I'm struggling with new routes in
Reading and the demo went almost past our door! <Smiles>
There was no mention as to whether this would ever be available to the
general everyday, hard pressed GDO and other blind folk trying to get
around! Has anyone heard anything about the cost or whether it will be
released for any users in an everyday situation?
