I have not tried text grabber or prism, but, did try text
detective, and was not impressed. I am sure that part of it is me. I am
probably not lining it up correctly, but, I did have my sighted husband
try it, and it didn't work much better. I will gladly purchase the KNFB
reader if it gets good reviews, but, I will just wait for others to
respond. It is not a necessity for me to have it.

Sieghard,
Like you I would get it if there are features that make it much easier
to line-up. I can't see myself bring my StandScan Pro to a restaurant
or anywhere else in public. If that happens, I will be happy to spend
the $100.00. Otherwise, its not worth the big difference in price
between it and Text Grabber or Prizmo. I'm also with you on having a
possibility to try it out before purchasing. This is not like a 99
cent app that you can just delete if it doesn't work.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for that information, that price means that I would only buy it
if it was absolutely outstanding and much better than Text Grabber or
Prizmo in several areas. For me those would be primarily in ease of
use and the ability to take good pictures and of course regonition
quality.
I hope they offer some sort of way to try out the app, maybe a free
version which allows you to take 10 pictures or something like that.
While the price is on the high side, it is, however, not as bad as
some people have speculated a few weeks ago when people thought it
would cost $300 or $500 and it's certainly a far cry from the $1,500
it cost when it was aavailable for the Symbean platform.
Regards,
Sieghard

It was announced that the KNFB Reader app for the iPhone will cost $99
and will be available by the end of August.
