Hi all,
Actually, if the unit still works, it's a viable scanning option,
Guido. There are people in this world who would be very glad to get a
Reading Edge to scan their materials. Since a computer, a scanner, a
good screen reader, and reading software costs in the neighborhood of
$3,000, a Reading Edge bought at a much reduced price would be a boone
to someone. <smile> There are people who still drive Packard and
Edzel cars, and those cars are worth a considerable amount of money.
I'll wager that if the copy were cleaned up, Guido, you wouldn't be
able to tell if it had been scanned with a Reading Edge or the newest
version of Kurzweil or Open Book. All ASCII texts look alike fer as I
can tell.
