This is Larry. The optacon was the only way to have independent access to print for many years and it was an amazing and highly wished-for device for many of us. I wanted one so badly I could taste it for many years and got a foundation grant in 1982 to receive one. I thought I had been granted the keys to heaven, smile. -----Original Message----- From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Susan Lumpkin Sent: Sunday, June 12, 2011 8:31 PM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Optaconon eBay Hi Lori, Larry could not have completed many tasks in his former programming job without having an Optacon. If we can not get chapter numbers when he has scanned a book, sometimes he is able to retrieve them with the Optacon. He is better at it than I am but neither of us are sorry we've had training with this device! I know Optacon users understand all this!
