Hi all,
Could not think of how to make the subject more clear. I have
a quicktionary reading pen, which is a marvelous device for those with
learning disabilities such as dyslexia, likely low vision print
disabilities, and anyone
wanting to learn to speak a language other than their own even English.
The device is a hand held scanner that speaks aloud each word
individually, or in sentences for slower exploration, providing meanings
too.
it can do this in different languages, has a 400 thousand word database
and runs on batteries. it has an ear piece for quiet reading. The screen is
a bit small, but the print can be magnified I think.
I bid on it at an auction to help a friend and never used it. found it
while packing to move and would like to see it go to someone who can use
it, and for far less than they are apparently sold by their company wiscom
technologies.
does anyone know of a mailing list where individuals with reading
challenges seek products?
I will post it on the few broader lists I know, but thought I would ask
here.
write privately as I guess this is somewhat off topic.
Karen
