If you have any features you'd like included in this radio please make sure you send your messages to sam at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not to me. Thanks, Steve. From: "Sam Ward" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Mike's Mess List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi there folks, So often when we buy a portable radio and CD player these days, we find that we can only use some of the options that are available and the others require at least some vision to use. Well, a friend of mine is in a rather unique position, and here's what he writes. Hi Sam, Right now, I'd like to tell you about a couple projects I'm involved in. The Best Buy electronics retail chain is teaming up with an electronics manufacturer to offer a blind-friendly radio. It's just in the planning stages right now. I have a contact who is involved in the talks between Best Buy and the manufacturer. My friend would like to know the top ten things we as blind persons would like to see in a radio. The first thing I said was to have a num pad on the remote so we could put in a frequency. I'd also like to see a button that returns all the menus and mode buttons to some pre-determined default settings so we wouldn't get lost in the menus and sub menus. If the unit is going to have a multi-cd changer, I'd like it to give an audible signal when the cd tray I select is empty rather than automatically finding the next loaded one. As you know, I have exactly two blind friends. But you seem to know quite a few folks, one way or another. Would you mind asking as many people as you can what they'd like to see in a blind-friendly radio and then send the information to me? I will pass it along to my friend and we will actually have some say in the design and features set rather than having the sighted design it for us, not knowing at all what we need or what would be helpful. If you're on any blindness-related lists where the question would be appropriate, feel free to post the question there and forward the info to me.

Re: Poikosoft news: Easy CD-DA Extractor 11.5
actually, what I think Bruce was asking wasn't necessarily where it could be found, but how to find it on the site. I've been through the forum which is where the original message stated that it could be gotten from, and I can't seem to find it. We're both paid product owners, so knowing the site isn't the issue here, it's finding the beta, which hasn't proven to be very easy so far.

Hi larry, in the January 2008 edition of FSCast, which I host and produce, I demonstrated using iTunes in conjunction with jTunes.

Re: Wireless Keyboards and Wireless Headphones
Some time ago I sent the following email to a British access group, I hope it may help: Hi Listers A couple of months ago I commented to the list that I'd tried a number of wireless keyboards, none of which I could recommend to others on the list. These included keyboards from Microsoft, belkin, trust, 2 from logitec, 2 from creative and 3 from PC World. The problems were equally associated with strange keyboard layouts as with the poor range of the systems. However, I have just bought 2 new cherry marlin keyboards which meet all the features I've always wanted in a wireless keyboard. They are of the modern flat design, with positive key travel, with no bounce and a slight click. The layout is exactly standard, with 3 groups of 4 function keys and a proper sized delete key together with an insert key. In fact the keyboard has the feel of a highly professional unit, for a price of £40 plus VAT and delivery. The great thing about the keyboard is the range which is quoted as 10 metres, but I've tried it outside in the garden about 15 metres from the sender and through two internal walls and an exterior wall - albeit in my modern house, so I don't know what the range would be outside of an older house with stone walls. But I would think that it would travel inside a house from say a computer in the bedroom down to the lounge. The sender/receiver is very small being approximately one inch by two inches. It uses the 2 GHz range rather than the more usual 500 MHz range, but it doesn't seem to affect my wi-fi system, although the further away the sender is from the router, the more reliable the key presses become. I have no experience of the optical mouse other than saying that the feel is equally professional and it comes with a charging cable that when fitted during recharging, allows the mouse to be used just like a corded mouse, so users can always use it irrespective of the state of the rechargeable batteries. The keyboards can be purchased from: tekdata on 01782.665500.
