I had a lot more to say, but that will have to wait.
This is a quick entry before i leave for singing to say that I've heard so much about this Apple iphone that I am going to try it.
I'm hoping they will have them at the optus shop at forestHill, if not, I will need to go to the apple store at Chadston.
If I fall in love with it, I'll sell my KNFB reader of course. I heard there was an application whereby, we take a picture, then send it to a server to have it translated back into text.
Anyway more later. But hope they have em.
And now off i go to singing.
Til Next time, RdFreak

ocr on iphone is nowhere near as good as on the knfb reader, but might get better in time. sms and key entry is slow on iphone and battery is only good for 18 hours or so. interested to hear your thoughts once you've played.

IPhones

Hi Rachael, Just curious as an awful lot of people seem to be ditching their Nokias and getting IPhones. Is there anything in particular that the IPhone offers you that you can't already do with the N82 with KNFB? I had a play with an IPhone a couple of weeks ago, and while I was quite impressed at how accessible they've managed to make a touch screen device, the fact that it takes 27 finger movements to dial an 8 digit number would I think eventually drive me mad. Also I wasn't sure that even with practice you'd be able to text or type emails as quickly as with a Qwerty Phone like the E71, or even a standard Nokia with predictive text.
I think if I didn't already own talks etc and I was in the market for a new phone I'd have to consider the IPhone because it works out of the box, but I'm curious as to why so many people who already own an accessible phone are changing over, so would be interested to know your reasoning.

Cheers.

Damo.
