It may be good for sighted users but i'm not sure how it'll fit in. For the totally blind, it's a bigger version of the 3gs with VO included. Unless it offers something relevant, i'm not sure it'll really do well. I'll probably still get one though, this is me we're talking about. Best -James-

Got more than three bikes... In the early 1990s, ZX81s were being thrown away, so I bought one in a boot sale for a couple of quid. Mint, boxed. And then a second, and then a third. The most expensive cost me �6, IIRC. I just had a feeling that they might appreciate. -- BMW K1100LT Ducati 750SS Honda CB400F Triumph Street Triple Suzuki TS250ER GN250 Damn, back to six bikes!
