Hi,
The headphones don't block any sound. That's the idea of bone conduction.
All the best

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?
