Many thanks to David for this including Richard's contact information.
Without David (or Richard) I wouldn't have a working Optacon today, and without
David's Finnish colleague Rabbe or without this list I'd probably never found
someone like David (or Richard).
Rabbe Saxén from Näköpiste Polar Print Oy (Oy stands for LTD) is retired but
performs hardware services on demand. The reason why he sent my Optacon to
David wasn't lack of knowledge but lack of spare parts. I've told "the battery
story" on this list; that story had a happy end.
One may just wonder what would have happened now if my Optacon would have
required service. Assuming that I would have known about this list I could have
asked for someone being able to perform services. I could have googled for
Optacon user lists like this, but knowing someone having the right knowledge
and correct information was much easier of course. It was David who adviced me
about this list.

Hi Everyone,??>
I've just picked up the thread asking of my whereabouts!
I'm currently 'out of the loop' , but all going well, I'm hoping to be able
to continue with the Optacon servicing later this year.In the meantime, if
you are UK / European based, please contact Richard Oehm for assistance.
Richard has kindly agreed to offer his expertise and services whilst I'm
unavailable. His email contact is: oehmelec@xxxxxxxxxxxx.
Thank you for your understanding,
Dave Godfrey

Hi Anne,
I cannot say for 100% certainty, but last time we spoke he said his first
priority was some time off. However, he did leave me with the impression
that he'd be setting up on his own.

Hello George,
Do you know whether he’ll be repairing optacons again? I live in France and
don’t want to have to send one to the States for repairs.
Cheers,
Anne

Hello list,
I just tried to contact Dave Godfrey about an optacon II I just acquired,
and I got the message that his mailbox is no longer in use. Does anyone know
anything about this?
Cheers,
Anne
