I wouldn't want Skype, either! I don't like to be interrupted when I
am doing something!

I never wrote that you personally had to make out with the feature, I
just said that I would like it on the device.
For what reason exactly would you not want those features?

I also want IM and Skype on it.

The Icon does use Linux, but it uses an accessible version of Linux
that
Level Star/APH have developed. For this reason, it doesn't
work with some
programs such as Skype. We could have someone that knows the Icon
very,
very well try it out. If this was incorporated into the
Icon/Braille+,
they
would have to get read of the music player that already exists, and
that
would require a lot of development, and a lot of confusion for new
users.
This would be a very cool thing to have, though.

Why couldn't the mplayer text based Linux media player that is
similar to
Winamp be compiled to work on the Icon? Then you could play whatever
file
format you wanted.

And if it could just do power points, spread sheets, and data bases
for work and school, and ability to listen to videos for fun!
I agree. This device is already better than the pacmate and the
Braille Note!

And while we're at it, let's just ask Levelstar to let us search
the
US CIA databases too!
This thing will be the best PDA outside of China!

True. Maybe someone at levelstar can get in touch with the amazon
people.
While we're at it, let's make it play M4P songs from iTunes!

Just not sure if they would work on our Icons. There is a
particular book which is not on Bookshare that is in Kindle
format
that I would love
to read!

speaking of amazon, it would be cool if the i con could
use the new
kindle format the kindle is a new e-book reader from amazon
they
have
90000 titles I know we have bookshare but there may be things
the
kindle
has bookshare doesnt and e-books are cheaper than real
books in the
store. The kindle and the e-paper from sony are bringing to
the
sighted
what the roadrunner bookport bookcourier and icon have
given us for
a
decade.

Jeremiah 29:11 - 14.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to
prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen
to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your
heart. I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring
you back from captivity.
