You're right about the Optacon. There are just some things which can't be
read with any other technology.
That's why we have two Optacons in our house.

Subject: [optacon-l] Good Old Optacon
Hi list,
This has been said before, but I'll say it again that there have been
uncountable times when I have thanked both the Optacon and Dave Godfrey +
Rabbe Saxén for the opportunity to be able to still check my printed mail
with my Optacon before deciding if something is worth the scanning and
text processing procedure or not. While my Optacon was on reparation and
when it didn't work before that, I really missed this opportunity. Like
before, no scanning and text processing facility is able to replace the
Optacon, not even any iPhone app. Now I am also able to use these but
haven't installed such an app just for the reason mentioned in the
previous sentence. But of course, if I had to be without my Optacon and my
scanning facility for a longer time, I would have to think about some
iPhone app just for reading printed text, but only assuming that I would
neither have access to my scanning + OCR facility nor to the Optacon
during that time. But everything is possible in life even though being
without both of these at the same time seems quite assumable but is still
possible; everything can happen in the real life!
This post also gives me an "excuse" to test if this list still works, but
why shouldn't it? A quiet list doesn't mean a dead one, and there are also
other things in life than mailing lists, aren't there? (smile)
