Hai Manish: Since last evening I tried scanning, but looks like getting the perfect scan seems a problem. When I tried it with sighted help, it came through perfect, but when I tried on my own, I always had problems. I had a book at home and after several scans, I rcognised the book as Fisher's biography of Gandhi... Guess it takes more time to really get used to this, specially if you are a first time user.

I am using the following instructions: "Place the phone in about the middle of the page and lift it slowly up until the entire page is in focus and the program will automatically click a picture of the page." This never seems to happen in my case. There is also the option of clicking manually. When I do a manual click, I inevitably shake the phone and the picture comes out blurred and the OCR is not really clean. Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong? Are you using the same steps? -- If the answer to these is "RTFM", then please say so because I haven't really read through any manual yet for this. Also, if it does work for you, approximately how far is your phone from the page (full sized A4) when the picture is clicked? As for your questions on Voice over, Kiran has already answered those in the thread below -- except that based on the say text website, this program should work with 3gs as well and not just with IPhone 4. -Manish -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Subramani L Sent: Friday, July 02, 2010 5:28 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AI] Urgent help needed regarding iPhone 3GS Hey all: Good news is that I have just tested Say Text in iPhone 3Gs. It works perfectly well. I need some practicve with the touch screen; otherwise the app works pretty well. Even the accuracy of the text is quite good. I was told that iPhone 3GS with 16 GB space should cost somewhere in the region of 23 to 25 thousand. iPhone 3Gs with 32 GB space costs Rs 40,000.

So, just forget about. 2. iPhone 3GS is also available in India and it has VoiceOver and Zoom functionality. VoiceOver is a full-fledged screen reader and provides access to most of the built-in apps and third-party apps. It does not provide limited access. 3. As far as I am aware, SayText may only work with the new iPhone 4 and not with any other models. I may be wrong but I don't thing the camera on the 3GS and 3G is sufficient for OCR. Look at www.maccessibility.net for reviews of the iPhone 3GS.

However, am told that Voice Over is not fully functional on iPhone 3GS. 1. Is it true that VoiceOver works only to get some contacts and operate music in iPhone 3Gs bought in India? 2. If not, pl let me know how best I or anyone buying iPhone 3GS in India can make the best use of VoiceOver and by extension Say Text. Quick response is appreciated since I need to do it faster.
