Do I need it? ;-) I have a thingie like a TV screen for my work. I can put a document under it and turn a knob to see how best I can see it. Yellow on blue, red on white etc. It will also scroll in large print from small in black and white. It cost my employers $6,000. And the best thing it that it's mine! I can transfer it to another job or take it home when I retire. |

i used to use one of those back when i could see, if you want to be
impressed ask gramby about her portable one... the kindle so far as i can tell lets you read books, either the electronic word or it will with the newer versions talk to you... books aren't supposed to cost as much as a real book, but i was wondering if it is worth my while or should i just content myself for now with downloading public domain stuff from the guetenburg project to my acer which will read that stuff... my real issue is 1 does it do anything besides read books. 2 can i get the books and down load them to something i already have. and 3 there are several versions, of the ones that read out the material which one is best.
