Hi Pamela and all, Thanks so much for letting us know in advance about Guido's upcoming Tech Talk session. I understand why the monthly calendar was discontinued, but, it's very nice to know what's coming up. Some of us don't have much time to spend on the PC so advanced notice is very helpful. Speaking of which, if anybody happens to know when the ACB presentation would be broadcast, I'd much appreciate. Would I be right that they'd only broadcast it once, even though there are several, back to back? Many thanks, Margaret _____ From: icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icon-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of William & Pamela Sent: Friday, July 01, 2011 11:55 PM To: chase.crispin@xxxxxxxxx; guido@xxxxxxxxxxxxx; icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [icon Discussions] Re: LevelStar Orion 18 at the 2011 NFB National Convention I only suggested something like System Access, because then we would be able to attend in real time, and possibly be able to ask questions. However, Guido will be presenting on Tek Talk July 25th, so that should work just as well. It won't be as good as being there in person, but the next best.

Serotalk is great, and I recommend LevelStar check in to presenting there. However, simply because of the way it handles things, online only, the word won't spread as far. 2. I am part of the staff for the Main Menu technology show on ACB Radio Mainstream. We are heard on Radio Reading Services all around the world, and we are putting a lot of efforts into getting as much aired as possible about Orion.

Why don't you guys work with someone like Serotech and have your presentations available online, maybe via System Access? You may be able to reach a much wider audience.
