I’ve taken that, by reading this list, to mean that I was offered the only Simbion phone they had in stock. It seemed that was my only choice. I know I could, in a fantasy, have simply gone for Ifone and Voiceover, but could I have bought something between the two, and run Talks, please? I’m happy with my phone, except that it was a recon’, and I’m concerned that it might not have a great life span. It doesn’t do wifi, but I don’t much mind; only really want a phone, and to play books and music. Sat’ nav’ would be great, but not essential. So, I’m not that bothered, but it would have been nice to actually choose a phone,rather than only have one option.

I would say that where 100% represented a perfect GPS solution for the blind, something like Sendero GPS or Mobile Geo represents say a 90% solution, maybe more. whereas Wayfinder Access was say 40% there, with OVI and speech services from Nuance or Code Factory being only 20 - 25% there. those around you or nearby views gave a person a lot of info and were essential to public transport usage.
