I got the impression from the Brian Hartgen inberview with Marco that without the computer it cost less something like seven to eight hundred pounds. Of course, it also seemed to come in maybe two or three pieces even witho9ut the computer. Check out this interview which is quite interesting. Go to the link that works for you then to the Si Recognizer, for more info click here link; then Jaws thinks it's speaking Italian but it isn't; and you can make it tab to: To listen to Brian Hartgen's Interview, click here. Once you get there you download an mp3 file where Brian talks with Marco. and demonstrates the machine. I still like the idea of the KNFB Mobile incorporated into one cellphone, but the Si Recognizer reading bottles and cans appeals also. We need a comparison!

That would be around 5,000 American Dollars. Prices are a tricky area for manufacturers who, at best, can usually only quote ex-factory prices. In this case, I'm not sure Italian Lire would mean very much to most people.

Btw, the link worked fine for me on the very first try. Sounds marvelous but I'd like to know how much it would cost. Dory [email protected] VICUG-L is the Visually Impaired Computer User Group List.
