Good morning to everyone on the optacon list! My name is Patti, and sad to say, I do not have an optacon. I was a little girl in the third grade, when I was introduced to that lovely machine. At first, I didn't like the way that it felt on my fingertip. I likened it to bumble bees lol. I grew to love it especially since I could pick up a book like all of the others and read it. Does anyone know where I could get one from? I realize I will probably give you guys a good laugh for that question, but I thought I would ask it just the same smile. It is really fun, to hear all of the stories everyone is sharing!.
