Contact e-mail is: michegodwin@xxxxxxxxxxx -------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marianne Denning" <mdenning@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <optacon-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, January 25, 2009 1:01 PM Subject: [optacon-l] introduction My name is Marianne Denning. I used an optacon many years ago and I am now interested in purchasing an optacon again. I am completing certification to become a teacher of children who are visually impaired and need to put children's books into braille. I am using the Kurzweil 1000 but need to check the work so think an optacon will be helpful. I am happy to know this group exists.
