I get it Wayne. I hope there is a more economical solution but blind square does excel at what it does from what I have heard. Blind Square is on my wish list for sure. I’d love even to use it to walk around in my neighborhood and learn the streets and such. I did listen to the blind square podcast and I have wanted it ever since.
What about Ariadne GPS? I haven’t seen an update lately so I don’t know if it still works, I don’t use it because I never could figure it out.
