The Accessible World in partnership with Talking Communities is proud to
sponsor a presentation on the newly released Victor Reader Stream from
HumanWare for the Tek Talk online event Monday, July 23, 2007.
The Victor Reader Stream is the most compact, most powerful DAISY player
to
date. Blind and low vision people can comfortably hold this new player in
the palm of their hand (4.6 inches x 2.6 inches x 0.9 inches) and have the
flexibility to quickly and accurately access content from digital audio
books.
Developed with the National Federation of the Blind (NFB), the Victor
Reader
Stream uses the latest technology from HumanWare to be able to read
digital
talking books. The Stream has a USB port to connect to your computer so
you
can transfer download books and music from your PC to a standard SD flash
memory card.
The Victor Reader Stream can play various electronic book formats,
including
DAISY, MP3, NISO, text, wav, and OGG Vorbis audio files. The player also
provides integrated text-to-speech for reading books in text format, such
as
those from BookShare. It uses a removable SD flash memory card to store
books, music as well as electronic text, and can even record voice notes.
Following the presentation, there will be time for questions and comments
from the audience. So, tell all your friends to join you. Seating is
unlimited.
Date: Monday, July 23, 2007
Time: 5:00 p.m. Pacific, 6:00 p.m. Mountain, 7:00 p.m. Central, 8:00 p.m.
