Good day List
Yes, I fully agree that the Optacon is essential for everyday use. I
use my Optacon for reading labels on tins and packages, correspondence
and even my child's homework. I can judge her handwriting as well and
am able to complain about her writing abilities as well. I have the
advantage of forming my own opinion about her handwriting and not just
to rely on the opinion of her teachers.
Apart from that I use the Optacon constantly at work. I need a second
Optacon and have approached Oehm Electronics who allegedly has one
foresale. However, I have no joy from Richard. Does anyone know where
I can find an Optacon which is in a good working condition to buy
urgently?

Subject: [optacon-l] captcha images and the optacon
Hi list,
A few minutes ago I was trying to send feedback to a web site and
encountered a captcha image that had to be verified. I usually use web
visum although these days there are other alternatives; after a few
unsuccessful tries with web visum, I decided not to finish the message,
and left the site. It dawned on me how essential the optacon is these
days; I have been able to read some, but not all, captcha images with
the optacon, and when no other option works, the optacon is vital. I
know there are other ways of solving captchas, including some that have
humans instead of software working with these images, but to my mind the
optacon is an essential option, because you can read the image and type
it yourself if the print is easy to figure out. Just another way the
optacon can be of help.
