Re: Looking for donations

Yeah I get that, there are only certain ear buds I can tolerate. One pair of those hanging down the ear thing with the band around you r neck type that go in the ear messed me up so bad I had to get rid of them. The first time I wore them, I got dizzy for like a half hour after. I thought no way that could be the case, something had just come over me, and it was unrelated to the buds. The second time I wore them, I was dizzy for the rest of that day.

Re: Looking for donations

@9  Thank you for your offer. I really  appreciate it.  As much as I would appreciate the earbuds, I use headphones for extended periods of time, and ear buds hurt my ears after about 30 minutes or so. I know, I've attempted to use several different brands including Apple, but they haven't  suited me well at all for what I am intending.@7  The  actual  price  isn't  $60.  I'm  only  putting that goal up because  Go Fund Me said to account for fees for using their service, plus any credit/debit fees. I wanted to make sure I had enough where I'd  be able to pay whatever fees they charge, and buy the $41 pair of headphones  that I found on Ebay.  I did my very best to find the best deal for a quality pair of headphones and didn't want to ask for $100 or more for my goal because  that'd be too much for anyone to donate, so that is why the goal is the way it is. @8  As  to  whether  it's a trend  or not, I'm unsure. I just figured it'd not be a bad thing to at least ask for what I'm  intending to get.  I  have been trying to find a job and am looking  very hard every day for them.  However,  most jobs  that I applied for turned out to be MLM scams that give you the opportunity to earn more money but you have to find your own clients. Not an actual stable online job I can do from home  that pays $10  and up  per hour of work. The  search continues. Also,  no  SSI  because  I'm not  a  citizen  yet and still have to go through the process of  becoming  one  legally, in the final steps now  but for right now  I've been flat broke for the past several months to a year at this point. Still in college though and I hope the degree will give me something concrete, after all, a piece  of  paper  if I get it  could  help put  me in an office for the rest of my life. Anyway,  thanks for asking your questions, and I sincerely  appreciate anything any of you could donate.  i  will close out  the campaign once the goal is reached, and will not accept any money beyond what the goal is mainly because  I figure that'd be scummy.Thanks.

Re: Looking for donations

I could send you my life P2s. They're bluetooth ear buds. They're the kind that take the tips, and they sound good, I just don't really like them all that much. The pressure you have to put on your ear to press the button is uncomfortable, so I have to grab the stem. They have a charging case that takes USB C. You get like 6 hrs then some time in the case. You can also use one at a time. They're basically air pod knock offs.

Do you really need a $60 pair?  I grabbed the Mpow Flame 2 headphones for about 20 bucks on Amazon and I think they are still on sale.  They sound pretty good, have a decent if not great mic, water resistance, and come with tons of ear tips.Not sure of your application though so maybe you do.

Re: Looking for donations for a purchase of a Victor reader trek

I've said this on many victor reader topics before on this forum. I still believe it has it's place for the contrivercial fact that it's not a phone. Here me out here. You all know gps is a major battery drain on mobile devices, and most gps apps for both iOS and android don't have the ability to download maps to the device so you're stuck without navigation if your cellular craps out, and as for reading books on it, yeah it works, but pressing buttons is way faster than looking for them. I love my phone, it has it's uses, but I find the trek useful so the phone can take a back seat and be a phone. An example of why using the phone for gps being bad is that in certain parts of Louisiana, my aunt's house being one of them, I have no cell service at all. That'd mean I wouldn't be able to navigate, but sense the trek downloads maps, it's not an issue. Another example would be, what if you went to another country.

Re: Looking for donations

the adapter lets you connect both to charge your phone and use headphones at the same time. I use it a lot. If that is the only reason you want bluetooth, I don't think it is worth it since there is a simple work around ,for a cheap price as well. But if you prefer wireless more, than I understand.

Re: Looking for donations

there is an adapter that has both a lightning port and headphone jack, going for just 10 bucks. It will last 1 or 2 years. If you have wired headphones and don't mind them you should also consider this. But if you are after bluetooth specifically, then that's fine. This was just a cheaper suggestion that could solve the problem you have.

The  link  is below.https://www.gofundme.com/f/steven-canto … are-flow-1I would be very grateful to anyone who wishes to spend their money on this. I know that this pandemic is  difficult and recognize that  this  is not  the  most  impactful issue  that  people have, but  as  I've  stated it wouldn't hurt to at least put  it out there.  Hopefully.  Thank you all very much for your feedback/assistance, and even  perhaps  criticism.  I'm  a  big  boy,  I can take it. Take  care,  all, and  here's  hoping  this  will actually happen.

Sadly I'm a bit too short on funds and have credit to worry about myself, but have you considered selling the Bookport DT and using some of that credit towards a Trek? If you prefer the Trek's layout to the BPD you're probably not going to be using the BPD much once you have the Trek. The BPD is probably still worth quite a lot. You might try a Blind Bargains classified if you have $5 to spare, or a trades list via email.Good luck! As a Trek user myself I can confidently confim that you're probably not going to need any other player, otherwise I wouldn't straight up advise selling the BPD.

Re: Looking for donations for a purchase of a Victor reader trek

Hey, thanks  for the response, I honestly wasn’t expecting any.Yes, I have a bard account, and an iOS device, and I also have a book port desktop, but I find the UI of the stream/trek to be way better, especially on bard, and other online Services. If y’all wouldn’t mind, share that link with people that you may know, so I can hopefully get donations. I did have a digital player  from MLS, but send it back, due to the fact that I have the book port desktop, which basically does the same thing, plus more.Now you guys are probably asking why do you want another daisy player, when you already  have a book port? Well, as I said before, portability. You can’t exactly carry the BPDTaround with you like you can with a smaller device such as the trek. :-)

Re: Looking for donations for a purchase of a Victor reader trek

The trek isn't the only way to read books portablly.  Do you live in the states?  Have you an iOS or Android device?  Do you have an account with your local branch of the national library service?  They'll send you a player for free which will play all the mainstream audio formats as well as bard DAISY titles.  Of course, if you have a bard account you already have access to that material with either an iOS or Android device through the bard app itself.Note: this is just a suggestion while you await something better.  I do hope you get some donations as reading is more than just entertainment; it is food and drink for the mind, body and soul and helps one improve their productivity, creativity and learn new abilities.  Unlike a gaming console, which is the other topic people are a bit tiffed about, this one doesn't seem too bad, and I'd donate if I had money.  As it stands, I just used the last of it to buy my wife a much needed upgrade for her wrist, meaning an apple watch.  Her doctor recommended it as she almost had a heart attack recently and she wanted a way to help monitor its activity.

Looking for donations for a purchase of a Victor reader trek

I’m  kind of wary about posting this kind of message to this forum, given the less than stellar replies others have got in semi-similar situations, not to mention the fact that I have started  audio game related topics a handful of times, and have not gotten responses, however here goes. I have a go fund me site, which currently has a campaign up for the purchase of a Victor reader trek. I, as like most other blind individuals, am on a fixed income, have other bills to pay, and a family to support.  I have an iPhone, and I have stated so on the page, but I would like a portable device to be able to read books with. I’m not asking for complete coverage of the cost of the device, but any little bit helps. Also, I feel that the story that I have put up needs improvement. Any takers? :-) Given the current world situation, I am not expecting much donations, would love it though, trust me. frankly, I know others have much more important things to spend their money on. But then again if we got a whole bunch of people to donate… :-)Here’s the site: gofundme.com/f/purchase-of-a-victor-reader-trek
