Re: Tap TapSee

[James Howard]

this may get me kicked off the list, but at this point, I don't care.
I'm really tired, of the blind community wining when they have to
start paying for something. you people don't take into consideration
that one, for such a service it is, how many do you think it provides
for. Plus, don't you realize how much, they possibably have to pay on
their end. I mean really, these prices they charge, honestly aren't
that bad, and if he leps most of you like you apparently say it does,
then what's the point of complaining, I mean, really, they could have
done a lot more, they could have charged us a lot higher prices, so
instead of complaining, saying you refuse to use it anymore, be
thankful you got what you got, and that it doesn't cost you and arm
and a leg to use it. Also, this community needs to learn to be more
considerate of prograamers and companies that try to do thigns like
this for us, to help make parts of our life easier. so really, only
ones that are hurting them selves is us, not them. COnsider this also,
how long do you think it would take for them to stop providing, if
they find out that their customers aren't greatful for what they do,
and rather harp on them for charging, just to think of themselves
only, and not even give a thought to them for making this for us, and
for not considering what they have to pay out on their end, to keep
something like this running, I for one, would gladly pay these prices.
so stop, complaining.

EVP Apps

[James Howard]

So, this may be kind of an odd request, but I'm looking for an app
that would allow for EVP, and things like that, I'm a bit of a
paranormal inthusiast.
