Hi Graham,
You need to invest a little time to learn to line up the camera. If you do,
then Beyo is pretty good. I use it successfully and I am total.
But then again, we sell it.
Incidentally,, KNFB Reader has now been price reduced to 495 pounds. We
sell that too.
We also sell TextScout, which in my view is the best there is, but it is
also expensive. The disadvantage to Textscout is that you need a full
Internet package on your phone, and you need a signal to scan.
The advantages though are many. It reads difficult print, such as product
packaging etc. It can also Email you the results. You can also download
the results from a web server. Scout is currently 625 pounds. If you want
to try a demo of these, you can get Beyo from http://www.comproom.co.uk,
KNFB Reader from http://www.knfbreader.com and TextScout directly on your
phone or PC, from http://install.textscout.eu.
I hope this helps.
All the best
Steve

Hi Amie.
I tried this program about 8 months ago. I saw its potential but ultimately
I did not find it accurate enough to make me spend £70 on it. There is
Kurzweil mobile reader but that is a serious rip off when compared to
virtually any other symbian program as the cost is not that far short of the
full desktop product if I remember correctly. If someone has had better
luck with the Beyo Reader then let us know!
Cheers
Graham

Wow; that sounds amazing. Does it work well? Is it a free download?

hi Adrian
beyo reader is a scanning program that works on a mobile phone
it takes a snapshot of a text document such as a menu in a restaurant and
talks reads back the page
i think that is more or less what a beyo reader is
i am sure if i am wrong someone will correct me or even give you more
information
Yvonne
