Here is a forward that I thought some of you might be interested in.
I know there are NFB people on this list, but my concern is that while this
device may indeed have excellent potential once the bugs are worked out of
it, I am disappointed that the NFB has again attempted to politicize
something that could benefit all blind people, not just NFB members, and
that it in effect, forces people to support the NFB whether they want to or
not just by virtue of buying this device.
