Sounds really wonderful. How much does an IPhone cost?

Hi everyone, I wrote to the developer of Doc Scanner yesterday to suggest they look into a specifically designed for visually impaired people app for OCR and I got the best response ever back from them. What a company. Jussi Forsstrom, Jun 24 09:47 (EEST): Hi Andy! Thank you so much for your message. We are very pleased to hear your thoughts and really appreciate it! It's almost ironic that you contacted us now about using DocScanner as a reading tool, as we are just launching an app called SayText. SayText is an app designed especially for the visually impaired and by the way, it's free! In a few words to describe it's use, you need to place the iPhone on the center of a document. There's a big button for starting the tool, tap it. Slowly elevate the iPohne upwards from the document until you hear an beep sound - this indicates, that the document is now fully in frame and the camera will shoot automatically, when the picture is stable / focused. Now only thing you have to do, is to wait for a while (You can tap the screen to hear the OCR progress, e.g. OCR 35%). When the OCR is ready you can start the voiceover to read the document out loud. The app should come to Appstore in a week or so. We're happy to give you more info about SayText. There is a website for SayText: http://www.docscannerapp.com/saytext/ There's also a video, where Mr. Heikki Ekola, totally blind person uses it. He's representing the Finnish Federation of the Visually Impaired - You can find the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlWJF27IdX4 This video is also at the SayText homepage. We hope you'll find this app useful and if so, please tell to your friends about it!
