high performance Braille display has a reputation for excellence,
responsiveness, and ergonomic comfort. It's hardly used, in fantastic
condition, and needs a new home! Discounted USD $2,500.00 off of its
suggested list price, this is an amazing bargain for anyone needing a
low-cost 70-Cell Braille display! Price includes shipping & handling
within the continental (48 contiguous) United States! Please e-mail
e-bl...@flying-blind.com or call +1 (216) 381-8107 for additional
details. This is a single unit that will be sold on a first come, first
serve basis. (Computer not included.)
Greetings!
For a long time, I had a low-cost service where I sold a package of 50
audio articles for $9.00. I ended up finishing around 35 of the articles
and didn't continue with the project, Hence, I'm making all the material
available to everybody. Though much of the material is dated, some of it
is still useful. So if you want to listen to any of the Sound Computing
articles, just go to http://www.topdotenterprises.com/sc/sc.htm

2) Because many people seem to find this aspect of iPhone use
challenging, I have created a 24-minute audio tutorial on arranging apps
on your home screen, creating folders, and the like. It has been
submitted to the Blind Cool Tech podcast, but in the meantime you can
download it here:

4) GW Micro has produced what they're called Window-Eyes 7.2 Refresh,
which fixes a few bugs using the Thunderbird e-mail client, the start-up
process for windows Vista and windows 7, some difficulties faced by
participants in the Pay to Own program, and some lesser bugs as well.

6) Jamal Mazrui has released another useful program, Encoding, which
lets you view or change the system used to encode a document. If you
work with documents in different languages or created in different
operating systems, it could be useful.
