I would be happy to pay the $99 for it myself, but I currently have the
iPhone 4S, so I have to wait until I can afford to purchase a more modern
phone supported by the KNFB Reader to get it. As soon as I get a newer
phone, I plan to buy the app for KNFB Reader, as I would love to have a
scanning OCR app. I have Prismo and Text Grabber, but I often have a harder
time getting them to work, so I usually end up using my flat bed scanner
instead.

Yes, open book is the same program I bought. It cost $1000 US back in 1999.
That was a lot of money back then.

It amazes me how the App Store his turn so many reasonable people into
extremely miserly human beings. 15 years ago I spent over $1500 for OCR
programs and a flatbed scanner so I could read my mail. It worked about
60% of the time, and I was very happy with that
Today I went to the desert botanical gardens and walked around with my
knfb reader, reading signs and learning about the desert fauna and how
the Native American people survived in such incredible heat before
air-conditioning. It was amazing. Hundred dollars is a very small price
to pay to have magic in my hand.

I've had good luck reading things with this app, even on my 4S,
more luck than with any other app I have purchased, or with the
KNFB Reader on the Nokia N 82, for that matter. Oh, I'm not
claiming that it is perfect by any means; but, for my purposes of
sorting my mail and the like, I am able to get good enough
results to get the job done to my satisfaction.

Is it worth the money then? 99 dollars seems an awful lot of
money to pay
for an ap.
But if it works, I wouldnt mind paying.

Hi all,
I am having lunch at my local sandwich shop. They have a menu
mounted on the
wall behind the cash register.
I took a picture of the menu... Worked pretty well!
