Hi Saqib I understand. I am not saying for one minute people should pay for these pieces of kit if they can't afford them, just pointing out what is there. It isn't cheap to be blind that's for sure! (smile). Good luck.

Sounds like a good recommendation. Sadly it's out of my price range as I have 3 children to support as well as my own food and bills. I live alone so getting that sort of money together is not going to be easy.On 17 Oct 2013, at 11:28, "Jackie Brown" <thebrownsplace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>wrote:Hi Saqib I would recommend you steer clear, but that is my own opinion based onwhatI have seen! If you want something small, I thoroughly recommend the ReadEasy Move from Visionaid. No it isn't cheap, but by goodness it is a quick and accurate scanner.

How good is this Intel Reader? Is it ok for reading regular mail? I'm looking for a hardware solution but don't want to pay a huge cost for it.Atthe moment I rent the Accessibility Anywhere package from Serotek but I would like to have a hardware solution where it doesn't involve turningthelaptop on just to scan a document.On 16 Oct 2013, at 10:10, "Debby McCallan"<debramccallan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>wrote: Couldn't agree more.Having bought a few things from Humanware, I am always impressed by theirhelpfullness and in particular the way they indicate where to sign on the VAT form.I recently needed a replacement cable for my Intel Reader and it was sentout the same day and I was only charged delivery costs.The staff are all so friendly too.

Most companies tell us to get someone to do it for us, but a littlethought on their part could make you feel better .Take note other companies.
