Good point on visuals. RBD readers describe those features for the tape.
Makes the reading job challenging, and very useful value-added for the
recipient.

Bill,

There are some graphic technologies available ("tactile" stuff?), 
from what I recall, they are rather specialized/esoteric, and not 
"one size fits all" (we have a federal grant here to provide remedial 
math instruction including visually impaired students - including 
some "learning disabilities" that are caused by "visual processing" 
deficits). also, the above mentioned solutions tend to be big $$$, 
either for the product, or related set up, training and maintenance 
(or all), and it isn't unusual for only the more "nerdy" disabled 
types to be able to use the stuff effectively.  

regards,
ep
