Firstly, it's Karan not Karen. Please do refer the archive of iPhone 3GS
where I mentioned about its accessibility options. In short, it comes with
built-in voice-over synthesizer exacltly like Mac and a built-in magnifier
and a add-on app for shake dialing. I won't recommend its voice over though
entirely based on its touch screen because there are always a loads of
confusion and trouble to access it accurately and speedly for my totally VI
friends unlike the other traditional phones, which gives you tactile
feedback. Having said that, its magnification technology is really state of
the art. Infact, once you use it - you get addicted of it somewhat like
zoomtext and even better than 'magic' on PC but all this features are really
very handy for low vision or partially-blind. About its performance: Among
the 3G S' new features, the unsung heroes have to be the improved
performance and battery life. Well, the improved performance is somewhat
sung, since the 'S' in the phone's name stands for 'speed'. Although it's
not as glamorous as cut-and-paste capability -- I never thought I'd be
writing that -- it improves the experience of using a phone that already
feels top of its class for responsiveness. The 3GS also supports voice
control, which suits me, since I like to yell to myself on the Delhi-Metro
to frighten off muggers. lol. It's activated by holding down the home button or pressing the button on the included headphones. You can use it to control the iPod functionality, as well for making calls. I was happy to see that it
supports UK/US English, so I didn't have to put on a Cupertino accent to
make myself understood. It had no trouble recognising who I wanted to phone or what band I wanted to play, and it prompted me pleasantly when there were several phone numbers on offer. Not a day goes by when I don't use in-built GPS system, which is overall alright. I can track all that running with the built-in GPS, and there's a compass to point me where I want to go in Google
Maps. It's also great for finding the correct exit from the London Tube or
Delhi Metro, but it isn't used in Google Street View in the very cool way
I've seen on the HTC Magic. I'm looking forward to what developers will do
with the compass app in the future. The landscape keyboard makes its way
into the messaging apps and Web browser in OS 3.0, which is great for
sausage-fingered typists, and could help if this is your first touchscreen
keyboard. I've always been big fans of the iPhone's keyboard, whether in
portrait or landscape orientation, because of its great predictive text.
It's even better than a full netbook keyboard for typing in the passenger
seat of my coach everytime I go out of town. OS 3.0 also includes MMS, so
you can send images, video, audio and contacts in text messages. It works
painlessly, but only images can be put in directly to a text. You can also
send links to locations from Google Maps, which is my favourite use of MMS.

For such a great entertainment phone with access to the iTunes store, I used
to be frustrated that I couldn't grab TV shows and movies as easily as
music. Thankfully, Apple's now remedied that, although I'm still annoyed
that we can't stream to podcasts. Damn the data costs.

Cheers

Hi Vamshi,

I remember reading a piece about this auto driver on Rediff sometime ago.
This article provided his mobile number along with the number of his auto.
Here it is:
 Sandeep Bacche
MH-02-Z-8508
9022416338.

Please pass it on to your contact in Bangalore. He deserves all the
coverage
he can get.

Hi

I had posted this on Access India before and this is not an off topic
post.  There is lot to learn for our governments from the auto driver
who does the following
25 per
> cent discount on metered fare for the handicapped.
> Free rides for blind passengers up to Rs. 50.

And seeing my post on the list in google search, one Mr. Ravindra Rao
has called me from Banglore asking for the contact details of that
auto driver as he wanted to write about him in an international
magazine.  Unfortunately, I didn't get that.

So, if anyone of you, especially from Mumbai, knows about him or comes
across him, provide me with his contact details.

Content-Type: text/plain;       charset="iso-8859-1"

Dear friends,

I am looking to buy a new Laptop for my personal use.
There are two models in my mind: Compaq Presario CQ41 216TU with the
configuration of Core I3 Mobile Processor, 2.13 gh , 4 GB of DDR3 Ram, 320 GB Harddisk and another one is Dell new Inspiron 1464 with Core I3, speed
2.13, 2 GB DDR3 Ram, 250 GB Harddis, Windows 7 basic home premium.
Compaq has no OS installed whereas the Dell is giving me the Windows 7.
The
price for Compaq Presario is Rs. 33000 and Dell is costing me around
31000.
Another good thing I found in the Warranty system of Dell that the Machine
has all  complete cover onside warranty where as the Compaq doesn't
include
any such complete cover, onside or replacement provision. Compaq seems
good
with it's configuration of Ram and Hard drive but the Dell is found very
good in the support and warranty.
Apart from user friendly Keypad, I will require good sound in the Machine.

Any suggestion or opinion of the members would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Amit Bhatt, +91 9560175887

Hiya
I also use google maps, which is built-in my iPhone 3GS and it works
very accurately with turn by turn directions. However, As I said in my
earlier post that accuracy and functionality would stll remain a
problem for some time in India, unless companies don't come out with
detailed maps. For example, google's street view. No matter, how
accurate or good your GPS systems are but I strongly do believe there
are still so many details are missing as it should be there on maps.
Also the updation process of maps in any GPS system is quite slow. I'd
always expect more and more details in any GPS system with better
accuracy and updation process so that a larger chunk of VH population
can take full advantage of this and won't hesitate to be dependant on
it to a certain extent. Exactly like JAWS, I wish GPS would work the
same way for VH sooner or later but I really don't think so that any
GPS is that reliable for VH because of the lack of details.
Cheers

Subject: [AI] Artificial Retina Enables Blind To See Again


The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded major responsibility for the
development of a third-generation retina prosthesis to Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory, California. The third-generation
artificial retina will enable previously blind people to read,
recognize people's faces and restore mobility so that people can
navigate about the world again using their sight.

The retinal implant is designed for the millions of patients worldwide
suffering from retinitis pigmentosa and age-related macular
degeneration, since it implants an electrode array atop the old
damaged retina to stimulate the undamaged nerve ganglia lying
underneath, with image information wirelessly transmitted to it from a
video camera mounted on a pair of eyeglasses.

The first-generation implants were successfully tested on six
patients, but only held 16 electrodes (4-by-4-pixel array), which
enabled the crude perception of lighted areas versus darkness after
about 15 seconds. The second-generation implant upped the electrode
array to 60 electrodes, which enabled 34 test patients to recognize
doorways and windows as well as the edges that assist in navigation,
such as walls and low-lying branches, after about 3 seconds.

The goal of the third generation of the implant will be to increase
the electrode array to more than 200 electrodes, which will enable the
near instantaneous recognition of text for reading, pictures and all
the edge cues needed to navigate the world unaided. Ultimately, the
artificial retinal will contain over 1,000 electrodes, which should
restore instantaneous recognition of faces and other fine details that
should fully integrate patients back into everyday society.

The artificial retinas are being fabricated on silicon wafers by LLNL
with the assistance of four other national laboratories, four
universities and a private company, Second Sight Medical Products
(Sylmar, Calif.), the latter of which will be responsible for
commercializing the third-generation device, including performing all
the field trials necessary to obtain full Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) approval.

Also instrumental in the third-generation device will be the Doheny
Eye Institute, at the University of Southern California (Los Angeles),
which will provide the clinical testing of the electrode array
implants, and Argonne National Laboratory (Illinois), which will use
its ultrananocrystalline diamond film technology to hermetically seal
the package for the prosthetic device to protect it from the salty
environment inside the eyeball.

The third-generation retinal implants are fabricated 12 at a time on
silicon wafers using LLNL's polymer-based micro-fabrication
techniques. The entire retinal implant assembly is composed of a
thin-film electrode array that contains the neural electrodes and a
biocompatible package that contains the electronics for stimulating
the retina, as well as a wireless receiver for powering the device and
receiving the image data from the camera. LLNL is also developing a
companion ocular surgical tool that will enable the easy insertion and
attachment of the thin-film electrode array inside the eye.

Other project contributors include Los Alamos National Laboratory, Oak
Ridge National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratory, California
Institute of Technology, North Carolina State University and the
University of California at Santa Cruz.

My question is regarding for trimming through gold wave.
I want to trim three diffrent parts at one time in one file. I can trim
only one part, but when i put start marker or finish marker  second or
third time, the previous markers go away, and only last part is trimming
there.
So can we trim two or more time in one running file?
Guide me.

Subject: [AI] Super Nova, an another screen reading software with
       magnifier!
Message-ID:
       <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252

Hello list members,
Hope, this mail of mine might  interest some of you.
On 18th and 19th February, training was held in AICB conducted by
Shilpi Kapoor MD OF Barrier Break. The training was on a screen
reading software called Super Nova. It was the trainer training
program in which an overview was given on how to use super nova.

Being, one of the participant I enjoyed the training. Thus, I would
like to discuss its few features.
Super nova comes in complete package of 3 combinations.
The first is Hal, which is screen reader.
Second is the Lunar, which is a magnifier.
And the third is Lunar +, which is magnification with minimum speech
is. In addition all the three as whole, is super nova.
?       Best things about Hal.
It has three synthesizers. First is Sam, which is Super Nova?s default
voice.
The other is the eloquence, which is our own JAWS voice, and the next
is the real solo with Sangeeta TTS, which has the Indian accent voice
for English and Lekha TTS for Hindi. Suppose, you have a document
which contains text both in Hindi and English, then setting the
synthesizer to real solo will read the text in the document in both
Hindi and English without changing the lay outs.

?       Best things about Lunar.
This feature is very good for persons with low vision. You can magnify
the screen upto 60X, without loosing its sharpness. It comes with
several color schemes which can be set according to your need, comfort
and choice. You can also modify and highlight the mouse pointers for
your convenience.
?       Best things about Super Nova.
The complete package of Super Nova comes under Rs. 10000.
It has support for both English and Hindi TTS, a magnifier and a
support for Braille display.
Guys, if you want to try Super Nova, you can download the 30 days
trial version.
Please find the link below to download.

It's highly inspiring and not too many people would hesitate to do so,
even they wanted to. Hats-off to that driver. I remembered the one
cabie in Sheffield (England) who give discounts to his compatriates,
students and PH but he is really brave fela in most of the ways, if he
is doing so. It's clearly not an off-topic.

Subject: [AI] Super Nova, an another screen reading software with
magnifier!


Hello list members,
Hope, this mail of mine might  interest some of you.
On 18th and 19th February, training was held in AICB conducted by
Shilpi Kapoor MD OF Barrier Break. The training was on a screen
reading software called Super Nova. It was the trainer training
program in which an overview was given on how to use super nova.

Being, one of the participant I enjoyed the training. Thus, I would
like to discuss its few features.
Super nova comes in complete package of 3 combinations.
The first is Hal, which is screen reader.
Second is the Lunar, which is a magnifier.
And the third is Lunar +, which is magnification with minimum speech
is. In addition all the three as whole, is super nova.
? Best things about Hal.
It has three synthesizers. First is Sam, which is Super Nova?s default
voice.
The other is the eloquence, which is our own JAWS voice, and the next
is the real solo with Sangeeta TTS, which has the Indian accent voice
for English and Lekha TTS for Hindi. Suppose, you have a document
which contains text both in Hindi and English, then setting the
synthesizer to real solo will read the text in the document in both
Hindi and English without changing the lay outs.

? Best things about Lunar.
This feature is very good for persons with low vision. You can magnify
the screen upto 60X, without loosing its sharpness. It comes with
several color schemes which can be set according to your need, comfort
and choice. You can also modify and highlight the mouse pointers for
your convenience.
? Best things about Super Nova.
The complete package of Super Nova comes under Rs. 10000.
It has support for both English and Hindi TTS, a magnifier and a
support for Braille display.
Guys, if you want to try Super Nova, you can download the 30 days
trial version.
