JAWS is strictly a screen reader. F S has a product called MAGIC that is screen magnifier and screen reader. MAX will connect to your TV set to read documets Hello amy and George: I am a bit confused here being from Florida, the state of confusion around election time. This video magnifier slash mouse that magnifies your computer screen is what type of hybrid? The Microsoft mouse seems to magnify what is on the laptop's monitor. The opti mouse with the video camera will magnify the reading material underneath it and project the image to the laptop monitor. So what am I not understanding? I use a portable video magnifier called the Nero. It is quite pricy at $795 the price I paid for my Patriot Eagle stand alone magnifier and a nice price to pay for a laptop. http://www.aisquared.com/Products/portable/index.cfm I use ZoomText magnifier and screen reader for my computer. www.aisquared.com ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2008 8:34 PM Subject: Re: [VICUG-L] advice on portable CCTVs :I hope I am understanding you correctly. if you want to have the effects : of a CCTV, to magnify materials outside of the computer....my previous : anser about special cables will help.
