The distributor they have for my area covers 3 states and they are not very reliable. I made several appointments to have a demonstration and they never even called.

I think that is their web address, and they probably have contact information. I know the machine is gaining a great deal of popularity. I tried to purchase one but wasn't able to do it. Nothing about the reader. Anyway, if you contact them, they probably can put you in touch with a distributor as they are all through them. Cindy Lou Ray.

Has anybody here seen or used the Kurzweil-NFB handheld reader/scanner? I am very interested in this technology, but it is hard to find a distributor in my area. If anybody here has used it, what is your opinion? Thanks in advance!
