shame, the book sense should make waves expecially with the xt model having built in memory and all those neat functions in only 4 ounces.
I wonder though how the masses took the mac stuff, of course, the mac audience would lap it up but in prior years, folk outside the circle tried to turn it into a square.

The only new(ish) book reader getting any play was the kindle and how Amazon caved in and permitted publishing companies to lock even the text to speech portions thus making most content inaccessible to us again.

so you weren't impressed with the book sense?My head is always spinning and It didn't take not going to csun to make it happen. I'm interested in knowing more about the apple presence particularly how it was received by the masses.On Mar 23, 2009, at 8:12 PM, Chris Hofstader wrote:I think that some of our heads are still spinning from CSUN which went pretty much non-stop for a solid week. The Apple presentations were very good and I learned a number of things. Mike also let me handle the new iPod Shuffle which was the size of a piece of Trident chewing gum and uses the speech features we enjoy on the Nano for all users, blind or otherwise.For the most part, though, this CSUN was, in terms of public announcements and the like, pretty dull. Sure, Code Factory made a screen reader for Blackberry and having another set of phones from which we can choose is nice but not earth shattering.The conference had no real "buzz" about anything in particular other than, after 20 years at the LAX Marriott, CSUN will be held in San Diego next year. As many of us blinks have grown to know our way around the Marriott, all of us will need some level of mobility training at the new hotel which can turn into a pretty ugly scene with all of the dogs, sword fights and just plain old disorientation in a crowd of 5000 conventioneers.cdh On Mar 23, 2009, at 6:15 AM, Keith Reedy wrote:Yes the list has been quiet this weekend.
