Hi Angel

The N82 is no longer available unless purchased second-hand.  And as for
K-NFB Reader, well that's pretty well gone the same way due to the limited
phones it works on.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

If he got the Nokia 82 he could also purchase the KNFB reader.  He then
would be able to read print using his phone.
