Also, on the same kind of note but a different device, I heard that the iPhone will have a KNFB reader type of app soon. Not sure when BUT, IF IT IS REASONABLY PRICED, I WILL BE A PURCHASER. WHETHER IT IS A JOKE OR NOT, I WILL TEST IT AND SEE HOW I LIKE IT. IT IS ALL ABOUT PERSONAL PREFERENCE. IF IT TURNS OUT TO BE SOMETHING I CANNOT USE, C'EST LA VIE. BUT, I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT THE NFB WILL RELEASE A PRODUCT THAT DOES NOT WORK FOR TOTALLY BLIND PEOPLE. AS WELL AS Himms WHO MAKES THEIR PRODUCT FOR BLIND PEOPLE, WILL MOST DEFINITELY MAKE SOMETHING THAT WORKS FOR BLIND PEOPLE.
