The OCR has some troubles that hims needs to take care of if they want people to be able to scan with it. The web radio stations work like a charm, as to blue tooth you can use blue tooth speakers and headphones with the unit. I use one and love it as well.

I’m glad I was able to contact someone who could tell me at least something on how the Blaze EZ is progressing and the Web Radio sounds very nice considering - if the review was anyth to go by - that function was next to useless a year or so ago.

well ok, i haven't used the blue tooth so i can't comment on that. the web radio works great. you can add just about any kind of station by making a m3u of the url. i also haven't used the ocr enough to be able to comment on that either. also i will say that the podcasting function also works quite well. if i can help you with anything else just let me know. i'm sorry if this isn't the help you were looking for.

Firstly I believe there were issues with the OCR technology the Blaze EZ uses, has this been corrected?

Second, what about the Web/Internet radio function is this now working?

Can you connect a pair of Bluetooth headphones or speakers to this unit or do anything else with the Bluetooth?

Thanks for your help.

Hi!

Does anyone on the list have one of these machines? I know a year or so ago I myself was very excited about the machines release and did intend to get one at the time.

Since that time I’ve heard very little about the unit apart fro the first version of the firmware being very flaky and having a few other issues.

I did hear form Hims Inc that a fix was on the way to address some of the issues raised at the time.

So now we’re at the “Christmas Stocking filler” part of the year and my interest in the Blaze EZ has been rekindled thanks to a review of the unit by Jackie Brown which was written over a year ago which is still an interesting read even though it hasn’t been updated so that’s where I need your help <smile>.

I’ve posted a link to the review below.
