excellent jackie. whilst i realise they are not comparable i.e. in the sense that one is a computer and the other a mobile phone, comparing the results of scanning different materials would be very interesting.

Tell you what I'll do then guys. If I can get my hands on one to play with at some point, I will compile a fair and honest review of the two devices, the Reader I have, and the new phone version. I don't know when that will be, of course, but if it happens I'll do it and post back.

Hi Steve, I an sure the function most people on this list are interested in is the text to speech. whilst the SI recogniser may be more versatile, at a price, it does not preclude a comparison of this function. I for one would be most interested. I think reading about these devices is the nearest I an going to get to one for a long tine.

Hi Paul, You can't really do a comparative, because Recognizer runs on a full PC, while KNFB runs on a PDA or a mobile phone. They are completely different animals.
