that was what they did in the demo. Not only from 20 feet away, but from off a 
screen. also Jim Gashel said he had used it to read the screen on his kendel.

  Other platform OCR applications cost over $200. This is not priced too high 
if it competes with the other OCR applications. I am curious on what it can 
really do. I hear it can OCR text from 20ft away.

    In my opinion, the price of this app, if it is indeed $99.00, is insanely 
high and it won't be on my phone for that price.  However, ultimately the 
market, as it always does, will decide.  I know some will purchase it at this 
price.  If enough people don't, then the folks at KNFB will have to make some 
decisions about the price.  If enough people buy it at $99.00, then the app 
will likely remain at that price for some time.

          If it was $30 I might consider it if other demos show equal results 
in speed and accuracy, but $99? They must be on some pretty amazing drugs to 
think people will pay that much for something that is only faster by a few 
seconds than apps like TextGrabber or Prizmo.
          Just my opinion.
