Hi Clive,

Also worth noting that the £495.00 for Smartvision, if that is the price,
gets you a much lower spec phone than the S4 Mini, which costs £500.00 with
Telorion on it.  Where did you get that price by the way?

All the best

Steve

Subject: [access-uk] Thanks for info on SmartVision

Hello Jackie,

Thank you very much for posting the link for the SmartVision phone.  I see
it 
is running on android 4.0, which, by the way, is an older version than 
Telorion currently supports.

As for Telorion, my wife Moray and I first saw this demonstrated at the
sight 
Matters exhibition run by KAB in folkestone last September.  We were 
immediately impressed and Moray bought her Galaxy S4 Mini last month.  She
has 
some sight, so uses Zoom, the magnification part of Telorion.  I have used
Vox 
with the keypad with some success, but I need to get used to typing on the 
screen through the holes which is quite different from using a physical 
keypad.

From the short demonstration I heard about the SmartVision phone I am 
wondering if I may find this easier to use than a phone running Telorion. 
Also, the price is £495, a little less than a Telorion phone.

From your comments, Jackie, I take it you are not impressed with the Kapten 
GPS products, and smartvision uses voice recognition as one means to control

the phone's features.  Telorion also has voice recognition but you must be 
connected either through a wireless network or your phone's network to use
it. 
We have had some fun with Moray's phone with some interesting results.

I will keep my options open for now, but as Moray already has a phone
running 
Telorion, I think at the end of the day I will go with that, bearing in mind

it is frequently updated, all updates are free and there are plans to
support 
newer phones and later versions of Android.

Best wishes,

Clive Pallett
