Well, Prizmo has some kind of guidance similar to the KNFB reader but it seems 
to be unreliable at times and i don't think it has the tilt sensor. What if 
that was built in? And another question on the same topic: The way we all, me 
included skeptical as i am, rave about the KNFB reader, how much do we really 
know about what the folks have done to make it this good? What if it was only 
the tilt sensor and the field view report and the rest was an ordinary OCR app? 
We make it sound like this app is the worlds 8th miracle, what if it ain't? 
What if some mainstream developer added at leas the guidance that Prizmo 
already has and a tilt sensor and it became just as good?
Sorry for sounding skeptical, i'm just wondering about things.
