an interesting product mix. 
 
I take it you guys have all been looking at the Google Goggles project with 
interest? So, if you're abroad, you take a photo of, say, a restaurant menu 
with your phone, you send it to google, and is automatically translated into 
English text. 
 
It's basic OCR technology which is then fed through Google translater. 
 
Has the significance for visually impaired people been noted by the Googleplex? 
Skip the translater bit, I'd be happy just to receive the text. And it's free 
gratis, no charge, free free free.

        Hi Barry.
         
        As an aside, I rang up the company who put in the advert as there was 
no pricing on their website for the product, they want £695 for this software 
plus they tried to sell me half a day's training for an additional £395 not to 
mention polarizing lenses and a strap for the phone to secure it.  An absolute 
rip-off considering.
         
        All the best, Ibrahim.

                This is a full blown advert.
                 
                No prior permission was sought or given to post this to the 
list.
                 
                It probably would have been allowed if it was more concise.  
More importantly the Professional part of the companys name wasn't put into 
practice in-terms of asking for permission instead of spamming the list.
