Hi Mary and all, I was under the impression that the Intel Reader was a portable device. Well, I think it is unless you use it with the capture station. I thought in listening to podcasts and demos about this product, that the great thing about the Intel Reader is that you don't have to be tied to a computer. It's funny that the voice on Intel reader I think is Loquendo Susan, she's as clear as a bell. But on Mobile Speak she's garbled.
